Abstract:
A controller in a printer operates one or more printheads in the printer with reference to a predetermined height of material above a surface of a member and a height of a top layer of material above the surface of the member. The height of the top layer is identified with reference to a first sensor that generates data corresponding to a height of a face of one of the printheads above the surface of the member and a second sensor that generates data corresponding to a distance between the face of one of the printheads and the top layer of material.
