Claim 3
Dependent Claim
104 words
An ink jet recording apparatus having a recording head capable of discharging inks of two or more colors in conformity with recording information, and means for causing said recording head to scan relative to a recording medium, said apparatus being capable of accomplishing polychromatic recording, characterized by means for changing a mode in which one-line printing by color is repeated in conformity with the number of colors used at least on the same line to thereby form one line of a polychromatic recorded portion, and a mode in which one line of a polychromatic recorded portion is formed in one scan by polychromatic printing.

Dependent Claim
104 words
An ink jet recording apparatus having a recording head capable of discharging inks of two or more colors in conformity with recording information, and means for causing said recording head to scan relative to a recording medium, said apparatus being capable of accomplishing polychromatic recording, characterized by means for changing a mode in which one-line printing by color is repeated in conformity with the number of colors used at least on the same line to thereby form one line of a polychromatic recorded portion, and a mode in which one line of a polychromatic recorded portion is formed in one scan by polychromatic printing.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
60 words
A method of ink jet recording an image including a polychromatic portion of at least two colors, including the step (A) of forming a polychromatic part of said image by printing within said part in a single color, and successively repeating the step (A) one or more times for each additional color in accordance with the required number of colors.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
