Abstract

See full text

A liquid discharge apparatus is to be coupled to a post-processing apparatus to perform post-processing using a linear medium such that the post-processing apparatus is disposed downstream from the liquid discharge apparatus in a conveyance direction of the linear medium. The liquid discharge apparatus includes a discharge head, a conveyance mechanism, a head driver, and control circuitry. The discharge head includes a nozzle to discharge droplets onto the linear medium to dye the linear medium. The conveyance mechanism conveys the linear medium in conjunction with the post-processing apparatus. The head driver drives the discharge head in conjunction with conveyance of the linear medium. The control circuitry controls the head driver and determines whether to execute maintenance of the discharge head based on a time required for the post-processing for each dyeing job.
