Abstract
A method for driving a plasma display panel allows displaying an image of high quality having a large number of tones without causing a discharge cell to discharge erroneously. The width of a first sustaining pulse to be first supplied during each of the light emission sustaining processes to be executed during the display period of one field is set wider than that of the subsequent sustaining pulses, and the width of said first sustaining pulse is narrowed in accordance with the frequency of the light emission sustaining discharges occurring immediately before.
