ABSTRACT:
An ink-jet printer system includes an ink-jet printer and a multiple number of host machines. The ink-jet printer has a storage portion for holding the completion time of the last printing operation while each host machine has a controller having an inactive time computing portion which computes the inactive time of printing operation of the ink-jet printer. This is done by comparing the completion time of the last printing operation held in the storage portion with the current time when a printing operation starts and a recovery treatment controller for controlling the execution of a recovery treatment of the ink-jet printer in accordance with the inactive time of ink-jet printer.
