Abstract
A droplet discharging method includes: forming a plurality of dots on a first region of a medium, on a second region which is positioned in a −Y direction from the first region, and on a third region which is positioned in the −Y direction from the second region. The dots are formed on the first region by using a first head and a second head to cause a second head use ratio to be constant, the dots are formed on the second region by using the first head and the second head so as to cause the second head use ratio to be increased from a value less than a first set value to a value greater than a second set value greater than the first set value in the −Y direction, and the dots are formed on the third region by using the second head.
