Patent EP-1132213-A3 (EP)
Inventor: ZAPATA ELIZABETH
IPC: B41J2/01
Filed: 2001-03-01
Abstract: A printhead (23,24,25,26) makes passes (16,17;
1st pass, 2nd pass, 3rd pass;102) over a printing medium
(4A), each pass forming a swath (94,95,96) of marks on
the medium. In one aspect of the invention, between
passes the medium steps (105) by a nonzero distance that
varies (185) from step to step. In another aspect, swath
edges (b3,b4,e1,e2) are spaced away (117) ― ideally
well away (175) ― from each other. In yet another aspect
a printer has a reciprocating carriage (20) ― to carry a
printhead (23,24,25,26) for forming, in each certain
multiple of a half-reciprocation (16 or 17), a swath of
marks on the medium. Each head includes multiple printing
elements, a number of combinations of groups of which are
used to print each region of each swath; the invention
increases (181) the number of combinations used to print
each region. In still another aspect, the step distance
is random or randomized (114,173). Ideally these aspects
are all used together. Preferably step distance varies at
every step (106,184).
