Abstract:
A dot recording apparatus performs multi-pass recording through which recording of dots is terminated in main scanning passes of N times (N is an integer equal to or greater than two) on a main scanning line, the multi-pass recording is performed for respective supercell regions defined as a region including pixel positions on which recording of dots is performed in each main pass, a first supercell region recorded in a first pass in the supercell regions is configured with a first concave polygon having a concave portion and a convex portion, a second supercell region recorded in a second pass in the supercell regions is configured with a second concave polygon having a concave portion and a convex portion, and shapes of the first concave polygon and the second concave polygon are inversely symmetrical shapes in the main scanning direction.
