Abstract

A liquid droplet discharge apparatus includes a discharge head having a nozzle for discharging liquid droplets onto a printing medium and an actuator for applying pressure to liquid in a pressure chamber communicated with the nozzle; a waveform generating circuit for generating driving waveforms of signals for driving the actuator; a surface information acquiring device configured to acquire information about a surface of the printing medium; and a controller. The controller calculates a volume of a recess on the printing medium based on the information acquired by the surface information acquiring device; causes the waveform generating circuit to generate a driving waveform for filling up the recess in accordance with the volume of the recess; and drives the actuator in accordance with the driving waveform generated by the waveform generating circuit such that the liquid droplets are discharged from the nozzle to the recess.
