Printing techniques for print media are described herein. In an example, a printer includes print head and a feed roller to move a medium under the print head along a print path. The print head includes a first set of nozzles such that the first set of nozzles is proximal to the feed roller. Further, the print head is to print on a Top-of-Form (TOF) of the medium through the first set of nozzles.

Media printing

A printer is disclosed. The printer determines the width of media to be printed on. When the width of the media is below a threshold the printer prints using multiple printing passes where the amount of ink is divided between the multiple printing passes with a first distribution. When the width of the media is not below the threshold the printer prints using multiple printing passes where the amount of ink is divided between the multiple printing passes with a second, different distribution.

Printer with ink control

According to the present invention, print usage information, for example user information and/or application information, is stored centrally in a non-volatile memory of the printer.
