Disclosed is a user interface associated with a printing system and a method of using the user interface to select a profile for jet detection. The printing system has a plurality of jets for outputting test images and document images and a jet detection device with at least one or more sensors for reading the output test images to detect faulty jets. The user interface provides a plurality of profiles for the jet detection device for selection. Each profile has a plurality of predetermined conditions that cause a test image to be printed at a particular location and analyzed. For example, a profile can include a time and a location for printing output test images using one or more of the plurality of jets. Thus, a user can control the conditions for outputting test images and determining missing or faulty jets within the system.
A method for implementing a selected profile for jet detection in a printing system, the printing system comprising a processor for processing documents containing image data, a plurality of jets for outputting test images and document images onto an imageable surface, and a jet detection device comprising at least one or more sensors for reading the output test images on the imageable surface to detect faulty jets, the method comprising the following acts implemented by the processor:
A user interface associated with a printing system, the printing system comprising a processor for processing documents containing image data;
