Zusammenfassung: | The invention relates to a method of controlling a printer, the printer having an array of nozzles which extends across a print zone of the printer, the method comprising the steps of: evaluating a nozzle status of the array of nozzles; printing a first swath across the print media in the print zone, wherein the array of nozzles is located in a first position during printing of the first swath; determining a second position of the array of nozzles for printing a second swath so that, under consideration of the determined nozzle status, the combined output of the first and second swaths meets a predetermined criterion; moving the array of nozzles to the determined second position and printing the second swath across the print media in the print zone. |
