Abstract
A method of compensating for image quality of an inkjet printer includes selecting one of combinations of a plurality of shingling modes controlling shingling characteristics of image data and a plurality of printed data generating modes, which are set separately from the shingling modes, controlling other characteristics of image data except the shingling characteristics. Therefore, deterioration of the image quality due to a defective nozzle can be compensated without replacing an ink cartridge.
