    摘要: An ink jet printer system includes a partially redundant page-wide array of moveable ink jet print heads in a print zone, means outside of the print zone for servicing the print heads, and a transfer system, configured to selectively move a redundant portion of the array of print heads out of the print zone for servicing while printing with a remainder of the array.

    摘要: Described is a method for incremental printing with an inkjet swath printer by depositing multiple drops of an ink from a printhead in each column of an image, in each scanning pass of the printhead over a print medium by obtaining the image, analyzing the image to determine which drops of ink will define leading and trailing edges in each row of the image element with respect to a scanning direction, removing at least one drop of ink preceding the drop defining the trailing edges in each of the rows, removing at least one drop of ink after the drop defining the leading edges in each of the rows and depositing the remaining drops of the ink on the medium while passing the printhead over the media in the scanning direction. Also described is a method of printing with an inkjet printing system scanning over a print medium by providing a printhead having a supply of ink and a plurality of ink ejection chambers for ejecting ink onto the print medium, each of the ink ejection chambers depositing the ink onto a corresponding row, the ink ejection chambers ejecting ink drops in a range of frequencies between a base firing frequency and a maximum firing frequency, obtaining an image, analyzing the image to determine which drops of ink will define leading and trailing edges in each row of the image element with respect to a scanning direction, ejecting the drops of ink defining the leading trailing edges in each of the rows at an ejection frequency less than the maximum frequency and depositing the remaining drops of the ink on the medium while passing the printhead over the media in the scanning direction.

    摘要: Periodic inking artifacts are reduced by randomness introduced into an image-processing stage. This goes beyond providing a fixed pattern earlier derived through random processing; rather the system literally introduces randomness or at least pseudorandomness into the image-processing stage. Preferably a superpixel is selected, essentially at random, from a plurality of superpixels—at least for points with an intermediate tonal level, which is the part of the tonal range where dot-placement error is most conspicuous. If image scaling or some other reason for using superpixels (and starting with a coarse grid) is not present, the randomness-introduction approach preferably includes preparing the image using a pixel grid that is coarser than the available printer resolution. The selected superpixel is applied at the coarser grid to define a set of individual pixels at printer resolution. A major preference relates to printing in sequential printing passes: a printmasking stage, downstream and distinct from the image-processing stage, is used to establish temporal assignments of inking into the plural passes. Because most or many printing systems already employ superpixels anyway for various purposes, the simple tactic of selecting superpixels randomly achieves major gains in artifact reduction but adds little complexity, apparatus, processing time or cost.
