Abstract
There is provided a liquid discharge apparatus including: a liquid discharge head; a relative movement mechanism performing relative movement between the liquid discharge head and a medium; a velocity signal output circuit; and a controller performing a constant velocity discharge operation and an acceleration/deceleration discharge operation. In the constant velocity discharge operation, the controller determines a discharge timing based on information about a representative value of relative velocity obtained based on a plurality of pieces of preceding velocity information. Further, in the acceleration/deceleration discharge operation, the controller obtains approximate information in which a change in the relative velocity is approximated based on distribution of the relative velocity, and the controller determines a discharge timing based on the approximate information.
