Abstract

In a droplet ejection control apparatus according to the invention, a judgment section judges, taking a dot position that is assigned by a predetermined nozzle (incorrect ejection position) as a reference, whether or not a printing state is such that a second proximity dot lands earlier than a first proximity dot. A changing section changes an ejection state, when the ejection state is judged to be such that the second proximity dot lands earlier than the first proximity dot, to another ejection state in which the first proximity dot lands earlier than the second proximity dot.
