る。2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, ink jet printers have rapidly developed due to advantages such as high speed printing, low noise, and high printing quality. Several methods have been proposed for an inkjet head used in an inkjet printer, but generally they can be divided into two methods. That is, the first method uses a piezoelectric material and deforms the piezoelectric material by an electric pulse to deform a part of the ink chamber. Then, a pressure pulse is generated in the ink chamber, and an ink droplet is ejected from the nozzle by this pressure pulse. The second method uses a heating resistor and causes the heating resistor to generate heat by an electric pulse. Then, the ink in the ink chamber is boiled to generate a vapor bubble. The vapor bubble causes an ink droplet to be ejected from the nozzle.

ていない。The second method has a problem in that the heating resistor is easily deteriorated due to repeated rapid heating and cooling of the heating resistor, resulting in poor durability. Another problem is that only ink that can generate vapor bubbles can be used. On the other hand, the first method does not have the above-mentioned problems. However, the first method requires a long time to stabilize the ink meniscus on the nozzle surface that ejects ink droplets, and it is difficult to increase the speed of the inkjet head itself. Therefore, it has not reached widespread use.

ェットヘッドの駆動方法を提供することを目的とする。However, the conventional ink jet head driving method has a low response frequency. This is because the ink meniscus takes a long time from the state of the ink meniscus shown at the time E in FIG. 4 to the state of the ink meniscus at the time G. Since the concave meniscus has no pressure pulse in the flow path, the concave and convex shapes are repeated due to natural vibration to return to the reference state. Ink ejection is not executed in a state where no pressure pulse is generated in the flow path in the standard state (for example, a convex ink meniscus at time B and a concave ink meniscus at time G). Even if it is executed, the ink ejection is unstable. Therefore, even if a pressure pulse is applied at time A and ink droplets are formed at time E, the next pressure pulse must wait until time H. That is, the ink meniscus must be quickly returned to the reference state in order to increase the response frequency. The present invention solves such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a method for driving an inkjet head that promptly returns the ink meniscus to a reference state to increase the response frequency of the inkjet head and enables high-speed printing.
