Abstract (en)

An inkj et printer comprises a printhead for printing onto a media substrate and a print engine controller to control the ejection of drops from each of the printhead. The controller is configured such that each nozzle is actuated to eject a keep-wet drop if the interval between successive actuations of reaches a predetermined maximum. The density of dots on the media substrate from the keep-wet drops is less than 1:250 and not clustered so as not to produce any visible artifacts to the eye.
