A method of operating a printer turns off a support structure heater when the printer enters standby mode. The print head is then moved away from an intermediate transfer surface supported by a support structure. Heat settings used to heat a print head are then varied to heat the print head and the support structure. Another method of operating a printer turns off a support structure heater when the printer enters standby mode and holds a print head adjacent to an intermediate transfer surface while the printer is in standby mode.
摘要:
A dual-drop mode for a printer uses at least two full length waveforms and switches between the waveforms according to one or more patterning methodologies to print a page length document having a dual drop size print pattern across the printed portion of the page. This achieves printing from individual jet nozzles of either a large drop or a small drop The page size patterning methodology is performed globally on at least a sub-page basis, rather than on a pixel-by-pixel basis and may be performed based on or independent of specific image data.

Disclosed is a phase change ink comprising (a) a colorant and (b) a phase change ink carrier, said carrier comprising (i) an amide and (ii) a Fischer-Tropsch wax having an average peak molecular weight of from about 300 to about 800 and a polydispersity of from about 1.001 to about 3. Also disclosed is a process which comprises (1) incorporating into an ink jet printing apparatus a phase change ink comprising (a) a colorant and (b) a phase change ink carrier, said carrier comprising (i) an amide and (ii) a Fischer-Tropsch wax having an average peak molecular weight of from about 300 to about 800 and a polydispersity of from about 1.001 to about 3; (2) melting the ink; and (3) causing droplets of the melted ink to be ejected in an imagewise pattern onto a substrate.
摘要:
A method of processing cyan, magenta, and yellow color values C1, M1, Y1 including transforming the C1, M1, Y1 color values to cyan, magenta, and yellow color values C, M, Y in such a manner that each of C, M, Y is not greater than a predetermined maximum value VMAX; obtaining blue, cyan and magenta output color values B, Cout, Mout by setting B=0, Cout=C, and Mout=M; if the sum C+M is greater than VMAX, obtaining blue, cyan and magenta output color values B, Cout, Mout such that B+Cout+Mout=VMAX; and half-toning B, Cout, Mout and Y using a first threshold array A1 for B, Cout and Mout, and a second threshold array A2 for Y.

A dual-drop mode for a printer uses at least two full length waveforms and switches between the waveforms according to one or more patterning methodologies to print a page length document having a dual drop size print pattern across the printed portion of the page. This achieves printing from individual jet nozzles of either a large drop or a small drop. The page size patterning methodology is performed globally on at least a sub-page basis, rather than on a pixel-by-pixel basis and may be performed based on or independent of specific image data. In exemplary embodiments, printing is achieved using multiple print passes, with at least two print passes using different sized ink droplets.

摘要:
A method of processing cyan, magenta and yellow color values including half-toning cyan and magenta colors values, and half-toning yellow color values in such a manner that yellow dots tend to be printed next to cyan, magenta or secondary color dots regardless of cyan, magenta, or yellow coverages.
