Abstract
A method for analyzing one or more criteria to select a media ejection sequence is provided. A media sheet quality such as stiffness may be determined and utilized to select an optimized ejection sequence. A print job characteristic, such as the location of marking material on the media, may also be determined and utilized to select an optimized ejection sequence.

A method of controlling ejection of a media sheet from an imaging apparatus comprising:
- determining a stiffness of the media sheet;
- determining a mass of marking material on the media sheet;
- using the stiffness and the mass of marking material to identify from a plurality of ejection sequences an optimized ejection sequence;
- and
- ejecting the media utilizing the optimized ejection sequence.
