Abstract
A liquid droplet ejecting apparatus comprises a liquid droplet ejecting head which has a nozzle array composed of a plurality of nozzles arranged in a first direction, a relative movement mechanism which relatively moves the liquid droplet ejecting head and a recording medium in the first direction, and a controller. The controller controls the liquid droplet ejecting head and the relative movement mechanism to record, on the recording medium, a nonuniformity correction pattern in order to correct any dispersion in a liquid droplet ejection amount among the plurality of nozzles. The controller is configured, in order to record the nonuniformity correction pattern, such that the liquid droplet ejecting head is allowed to eject liquid droplets from at least the first nozzle to thereby record a first pattern group, the relative movement mechanism is allowed to relatively move the liquid droplet ejecting head and the recording medium in the first direction by a predetermined distance, and the liquid droplet ejecting head is allowed to eject the liquid droplets from at least the second nozzle to thereby record a second pattern group.
