Abstract
The technique provided enables, when first ink is precured and second ink is ejected thereon, ensuring sufficient adhesion of the second ink via a primer. A printer includes a transport mechanism, a primer ejection head, a second light irradiator, a white-ink ejection head, a color-ink ejection head, and a controller. The controller controls the amount of primer ejected to a unit region of a continuous base material by the primer ejection head, the amount of white ink ejected thereto by the white-ink ejection head, and the amount of color ink ejected thereto by the color-ink ejection head. The controller determines a first primer amount based on the amount of white ink and determines a second primer amount based on the amount of color ink. The controller then determines an ultimate primer amount based on the sum of the first primer amount and the second primer amount.
