Abstract
A printing apparatus includes a first memory, a second memory, an input circuit that alternately inputting second reference data and third reference data different from each other to the second memory, a processing circuit that performs first color processing with reference to first reference data in the first memory on print data, second color processing with reference to the second reference data in the second memory on the print data, and third color processing with reference to the third reference data in the second memory to the print data, and a printing mechanism that performs printing.
Claims12
A printing apparatus comprising:
- a first memory;
- a second memory;
- an input circuit that alternately inputting second reference data and third reference data different from each other to the second memory;
- a processing circuit that performs first color processing with reference to first reference data in the first memory on print data, second color processing with reference to the second reference data in the second memory on the print data, and third color processing with reference to the third reference data in the second memory to the print data;
- and
- a printing mechanism that prints a first color based on the print data on which the first color processing has been performed, prints a second color based on the print data on which the second color processing has been performed, and prints a third color based on the print data on which the third color processing has been performed,
- wherein the processing circuit performs the first color processing, the second color processing, and the third color processing in a first order, subsequently performs the first color processing, the second color processing, and the third color processing in a second order, and the first order and the second order differ from each other in that the second color processing and the third color processing are performed in reversed orders.
A data processing method comprising:
- a first step of performing data processing with reference to first reference data in a first memory;
- a second step of performing data processing with reference to second reference data in a second memory;
- a third step of performing data processing with reference to third reference data in the second memory;
- and
- an input step of alternately inputting the second reference data and the third reference data different from each other to the second memory,
- wherein the first step, the second step, and the third step are executed in a first order, and the first step, the second step, and the third step are subsequently executed in a second order, and
- the first order and the second order differ from each other in that the second step and the third step are executed in reversed orders.
