    Abstract: A method to control a printer carriage in which the printer carriage is controlled to move along a first axis at a first predetermined speed when a printhead, installed on the printer carriage, is ejecting printing fluid in a print zone. The printer carriage is moveable bidirectionally along the first axis in swaths to enable the printhead to print in the print zone. The printer carriage is also controlled to move along the first axis at a second predetermined speed, higher than the first predetermined speed, when the printhead is not ejecting printing fluid in the print zone.

    Abstract: Operation of a printer for printing an image is described herein. It is determined whether ejection of imaging droplets of a print fluid via a set of nozzles for printing an outstanding image portion is sufficient for preventing clogging of the set of nozzles. Upon determining that ejection of imaging droplets for printing the outstanding image portion is sufficient for preventing clogging of the set of nozzles, printing is performed by ejecting only imaging droplets of the print fluid via the set of nozzles. Upon determining that ejection of imaging droplets for printing the outstanding image portion is not sufficient for preventing clogging of the set of nozzles, a servicing procedure is to be executed of to eject purging droplets of the print fluid via the set of nozzles.

    Abstract: In the field of printing technology, non impact printing methods such as inkjet printing may be used to deposit an ink composition onto print media to form an image. An ink composition typically comprises a colourant material and a vehicle, such as an aqueous solution, for delivering the colourant material to the print media. A wide range of such ink compositions is known in the industry. It is also known to use various pre-treatment compositions in combination with ink compositions in order to enhance the quality of a final image. Pre-treatment compositions are often substantially colourless liquid compositions that interact with elements of the ink composition to fix colourant to the print media. Pre-treatment compositions may help to improve image quality for example by reducing image bleeding, edge roughness and other image quality issues.
