摘要： Data input received by a printer is printed. Dot data, which indicates location of dots on a print medium, is generated from the data input. Dot shift data is used in order to make sub-pixel shifts in locations of a subset of the dots on the print medium. Pulses are provided to a printhead which result in ink being emitted through nozzles located on the printhead. When placing the dots on the print medium, sub-pixel shifts in locations of the subset of the dots is achieved by time shifting the occurrence of pulses used to generate the dots.

摘要： A technique for controlling print quality in an inkjet printer by delivering synchronized heating, non-printing pulses and printing pulses to the ink firing resistors during print firing operations such as during the printing of a swath. A temperature of the printhead substrate is measured and compared against a reference temperature during printing operations. If the measured temperature is below the reference temperature, then the printhead substrate is heated during the printing operations to bring the substrate up to the reference temperature. The heating is done by delivering synchronized heating non-printing pulses and printing pulses to the ink firing resistors during selected print firing periods, wherein either the heating pulses or the printing pulses, but not both, occur during a selected print firing period. The heating pulses are logically OR-ed with the printing pulses to achieve the synchronization.

摘要： A bipolar ink jet driver circuit includes a plurality of individual driver cells having a common collector and a resistive heater element. A common collector obviates the need for any isolation between adjacent driver cells. The driver cells each include two bipolar transistors configured as a Darlington pair, which drive an associated resistive heater element. The cells are grouped together to form individual driver circuits each having a control line for enabling each driver circuit. The cells within each driver circuit are individually addressable via address lines which are coupled to each of the driver elements. The resistive heater elements are actuated by enabling a driver circuit and addressing a driver cell within the enabled driver circuit.
