Abstract
A printer includes a print head to print by ejecting drops of a printing fluid;, a memory to store a correction measure, the correction measure to modify printing a pattern to compensate for decel, and a processor. The processor analyzes print data for a pattern that, when printed using the print head, triggers decel, controls the print head to eject drops of the printing fluid in accordance with the print data, when the analysis indicates that the pattern to be printed triggers decel, applies the correction measure upon printing the pattern, and, when the analysis indicates that the pattern to be printed does not trigger decel, does not apply the correction measure upon printing the pattern.
Claims15
A printer, comprising:
- a print head to print by ejecting drops of a printing fluid,
- a memory to store a correction measure, the correction measure to modify printing a pattern to compensate for decel, and
- a processor to:
- analyze print data for a pattern that, when printed using the print head, triggers decel,
- control the print head to eject drops of the printing fluid in accordance with the print data,
- when the analysis indicates that the pattern to be printed triggers decel, apply the correction measure upon printing the pattern, and
- when the analysis indicates that the pattern to be printed does not trigger decel, not apply the correction measure upon printing the pattern.
A method, comprising:
- analyzing print data for a pattern that, when printed using the print head, triggers decel,
- controlling a print head to eject drops of the printing fluid in accordance with the print data,
- when the analysis indicates that the pattern to be printed triggers decel, applying a correction measure upon printing the pattern, and
- when the analysis indicates that the pattern to be printed does not trigger decel, not applying the correction measure upon printing the pattern.
A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions executable by a processing resource of a computing device to cause the processing resource to:
- analyze print data for a pattern that, when printed using the print head, triggers decel,
- control the print head to eject drops of the printing fluid in accordance with the print data,
- when the analysis indicates that the pattern to be printed triggers decel, apply the correction measure upon printing the pattern, and
- when the analysis indicates that the pattern to be printed does not trigger decel, not apply the correction measure upon printing the patt
