Ink delivery system

A non-transitory computer readable medium for ink delivery comprising instructions, which when executed cause a processor to:

• control a first ink flow through a first closed pathway through a multi-nozzle printhead in a first direction;
• control a second ink flow through a second closed pathway through the multi-nozzle printhead, the second pathway configured to move the second ink flow in a second direction;
• direct the first ink flow through a first shunt between the first closed pathway and the second closed pathway at a first end of the multi-nozzle printhead, the first shunt allowing some of the first ink flow exiting the multi-nozzle printhead to merge with the second ink flow entering the multi-nozzle printhead;
• and,
• direct the second ink flow through a second shunt between the first closed pathway and the second closed pathway at a second end of the multi-nozzle printhead, the second shunt allowing some of the second ink flow exiting the multi-nozzle printhead to merge with the first ink flow entering the multi-nozzle printhead.

A method for ink delivery, the method comprising:

• flowing ink in a first closed pathway through a multi-nozzle printhead in a first direction;
• flowing ink in a second closed pathway through the multi-nozzle printhead in a second direction;
• shunting some ink from the first closed pathway to the second closed pathway at a first end of the multi-nozzle printhead through a first shunt, the first shunt allowing some of the first ink flow exiting the multi-nozzle printhead to merge with the second ink flow entering the multi-nozzle printhead;
• and,
• shunting some ink between the first closed pathway and the second closed pathway at a second end of the multi-nozzle printhead via a second shunt, the second shunt allowing some of the second ink flow exiting the multi-nozzle printhead to merge with the first ink flow entering the multi-nozzle printhead.
