Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2007065187A1] A method of modulating a peak power requirement of an inkjet printhead is provided. The printhead comprises a plurality of first nozzles and a plurality of second nozzles supplied with a same colored ink. The first nozzles and second nozzles are configured in a plurality of sets, wherein each set of nozzles comprises one first nozzle and one corresponding second nozzle. Each nozzle in a set is configurable to print a dot of the ink onto a substantially same position on a print medium. The method comprises the steps of: (a) selecting a firing nozzle from at least one set of nozzles, the selection being on the basis of modulating the peak power requirement; and (b) printing a dot onto said print medium using said firing nozzle.
