Abstract:
1. A printing method for application in an inkjet printer containing a substantially closed ink chamber provided with a nozzle, said ink chamber being operatively connected to an electro-mechanical converter, said method comprising the steps of: printing an image for the purposes of which the converter is actuated according to a predetermined printing strategy in order to eject ink drops from the nozzle for the formation of the image on a carrier, detecting the presence of an obstruction inside the ink chamber during the printing process, followed by interrupting the printing process, wherein the method further comprises: modifying the printing strategy in such a way that the obstruction will not produce ink chamber failure while the process of printing the image continues by the actuation of the converter using the modified printing strategy, and continuing the printing process by the application of the modified printing strategy.
