Abstract
A post-processing unit includes a punch unit that punches a paper on which recording is performed by a recording unit that discharges ink, and a controller that controls a punching operation of the punch unit. The controller sets at least one of the number of punching and a punching speed per paper in the punch unit based on setting information of at least one of recording information and environmental information in the recording unit.
Claims18
A post-processing device comprising:
- a punching portion that punches a medium on which recording is performed by a recording portion that discharges a liquid;
- and
- a controller that controls a punching operation of the punching portion, wherein
- the controller sets at least one of a number of punching and a punching speed per medium in the punching portion based on setting information of at least one of recording information or environmental information in the recording portion,
- the recording information includes information on a recording density of a scheduled punching area in the medium, and
- the controller sets at least one of the number of punching and the punching speed based on the information on the recording density.
