Abstract

A liquid discharge apparatus includes a head, a position changer, and circuitry. The head has a nozzle. The head discharges a liquid from the nozzle to apply the liquid onto a surface of an object. The head has a prescribed discharge condition. The position changer changes a relative position between the object and the head. The circuitry determines a linear trajectory along which the position changer moves the head based on the prescribed discharge condition, outputs a first command including multiple moving positions along the linear trajectory to the position changer to cause the position changer to move the head along the linear trajectory, and outputs a second command including multiple discharge positions to the head to cause the head to discharge the liquid at the multiple discharge positions.
