Claim 9:
10. An inkjet printer comprising:
at least one printhead carrier plate;
at least one printhead mounted to the at least one printhead carrier plate;
a media transport path that is configured to carry media past the at least one printhead for printing ink images on the media;
at least one actuator being mounted to the at least one printhead carrier plate, the at least one actuator being configured to move the at least one printhead carrier plate with respect to the media transport path in a direction that is perpendicular to a plane in the media transport path; and
a controller operatively connected to the at least one actuator, the controller being configured to:
receive print job parameters for a print job;
operate the at least one actuator to set a distance between the at least one printhead and the media transport path in the printer using a media type identified in the print job parameters;
detect a vibration in the inkjet printer; and
compensate for the detected vibration by operating the at least one actuator to adjust the distance between the at least one printhead and the media transport path.
