Abstract
Provided is the image formation device which suppresses an occurrence of unevenness in density of the image and a time required to form the image. The image formation device forms images by moving the different ejection heads. One of the ejection heads ejects white ink from a first predetermined number of nozzles thereof. Another one of the ejection heads ejects color ink from the first predetermined number and a second predetermined number of nozzles thereof. The ejection heads that eject color ink move in a sub scan direction that is non-integral multiple of a distance between the adjacent nozzle holes and eject the color ink, and then move in the sub scan direction that corresponds to a length in the sub scan direction of an area of the ejection head in which the first predetermined number of the nozzles are arranged and eject the color ink.
