Recirculating fluid in a printhead
Abstract:
A method of recirculating fluid in a printhead die is provided. The method comprises generating ejection data specifying a nozzle of the printhead from which a drop is to be ejected and storing the ejection data in a first memory. Recirculation data is generated for the nozzle for which a recirculation operation is to be performed, and the recirculation data is stored in a second memory different from the first memory. Fluid is recirculated in the nozzle on the basis of the recirculation data in advance of ejecting a drop from the nozzle on the basis of the ejection data. The recirculation data is generated based on the respective ejection data for the nozzle.
