Abstract
According to an embodiment, an ink jet head includes a discharge unit, a first storing unit, a second storing unit, a waveform generating unit, and a voltage applying unit. The discharge unit discharges ink according to the operation of an actuator. The first storing unit stores a pattern of a voltage to be applied to the actuator. The second storing unit stores a plurality of timer sets. The waveform generating unit generates, on the basis of the timer sets stored by the second storing unit and the voltage pattern stored by the first storing unit, a waveform of the voltage to be applied to the actuator. The voltage applying unit applies the voltage to the actuator on the basis of the waveform generated by the waveform generating unit.
