Patent attributes
An image recording apparatus, having: a recording head which discharges a photo curable ink which is cured by photo irradiation; a plurality of light irradiating devices which irradiate the photo irradiation to the photo curable ink on a recording medium and each of which includes a light source; a detector which detects an illumination intensity of each of the light irradiating devices; a first judgment section which judges whether the illumination intensity of each of the light irradiating devices is less than a first illumination intensity based on a result of detection by the detector or not; and a controller which controls an energy of the photo irradiation for the photo curable ink in accordance with a detected illumination intensity less than the first illumination intensity, when the first judgment section judges one of the light irradiating devices having an illumination intensity less than the first illumination intensity exists.
