A print device includes a head, a recovery portion, and a processor. The head ejects an ink onto a print medium. The recovery portion performs recovery processing to recover an ejection performance of the ink of the head. The processor acquires an integrated value of an ejection amount of the ink, and determines when the integrated value is equal to or more than a reference value, execution of the recovery processing including wiping of a nozzle surface. A nozzle hole is formed in the nozzle surface and ejects the ink. The processor acquires a temperature correlation value corresponding to an environmental temperature, and sets the reference value based on the acquired temperature correlation value such that the reference value when the environmental temperature is a first temperature is smaller than the reference value when the environmental temperature is a second temperature. The second temperature is higher than the first temperature.
A print device comprising:
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor of a print device including a head having at least a first nozzle surface in which a nozzle hole is formed, the nozzle hole being configured to eject, onto a print medium, a first ink, the head further configured to eject, onto the print medium, a second ink with a lower solid content than the first ink, and a recovery portion having a wiper, the recovery portion configured to perform recovery processing, the recovery processing recovering an ejection performance of the first ink of the head, wherein the recovery processing includes a wiping operation wherein the nozzle surface that is configured to elect the first ink is wiped by the wiper, cause the processor to:
