【発明の詳細な説明】
〔産業上の利用分野〕
本発明はドツトシリアルプリンタ、特に低騒音印字に関
する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to dot serial printers, and in particular to low noise printing.
従来、この種のプリンタの低騒音印字モードは2パス印
字の一種類であった。Conventionally, the low-noise printing mode of this type of printer has been one type of two-pass printing.
上述した従来の低騒音印字モードは印字速度が遅くなる
という欠点がある。The above-described conventional low-noise printing mode has the disadvantage that the printing speed is slow.
r問題点を解決するための手段〕
本発明のプリンタは標準印字モードと2パス印字モード
とドラフト印字モードとを切り換えるスイッチを有して
いる。Means for Solving Problems] The printer of the present invention has a switch for switching between a standard printing mode, a two-pass printing mode, and a draft printing mode.
次に、本発明について図面を参照して説明する。 Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.
第1図は本発明の一実施例の概略図である。FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present invention.
1は印字制御部、2は操作盤、3は印字ヘッドドライバ
回路、4は横送りモータドライバ回路、5は印字ヘッド
、6は横送りモータである。1 is a print control unit, 2 is an operation panel, 3 is a print head driver circuit, 4 is a lateral feed motor driver circuit, 5 is a print head, and 6 is a lateral feed motor.
印字制御部1は操作盤2の印字モードを切り換えるスイ
ッチの状態を検知して、印字方式を制御する。スイッチ
が標準モードになっている場合は通常の印字制御を行い
、2パスモード側にスイッチが倒れている場合は、通常
の印字制御動作を2回の印字動作にわけて低騒音印字動
作をする(横送りモータの速度は標準モードと同じ)。The print control unit 1 detects the state of a switch for changing the print mode on the operation panel 2 and controls the print method. When the switch is in standard mode, normal printing control is performed, and when the switch is in 2-pass mode, normal printing control operation is divided into two printing operations for low-noise printing operation. (The speed of the lateral feed motor is the same as in standard mode).
又、ドラフトモード側にスイッチが倒れている場合は、
印字データのパターンを間引いて、標準モードの印字制
御と同じ横送りモータの速度で低騒音印字動作を制御す
る。Also, if the switch is tilted to the draft mode side,
The print data pattern is thinned out and low-noise printing operation is controlled at the same horizontal feed motor speed as the standard mode printing control.

ードの印字パターンは標準モードの印字パターンに比べ
てドツト密度が少ないので印字動作のときのインパクト
音が低くなり、低騒音印字動作が可能になる。Figure 4 is an example of the "A" print pattern in the draft mode. In the "A" print pattern in the standard mode in Figure 3, two consecutive dots in the horizontal direction are thinned out to one dot. There is. As can be seen from the figure, the draft mode printing pattern has a lower dot density than the standard mode printing pattern, so the impact noise during printing operation is lower, making it possible to perform low-noise printing operation.
[発明の効果〕
以上説明したように本発明は、印字速度を落さずに低騒
音モードにすることができる効果がある。[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, the present invention has the effect of enabling a low noise mode without reducing the printing speed.
