Abstract
An inkjet printhead including an inkjet configured to eject drops of ink in response to receiving an electrical signal, a memory configured to store image data, and a processor operatively coupled to the inkjet and the memory. The processor receives the image data and determines a period of latency of the inkjet printhead. When the period of latency is within a predetermined timeframe, the processor increases a voltage of the electrical signal to a second voltage for an initial number of drops to eject the drops of ink in a pattern of printed ink drops with reference to at least a portion of the image data and reduce the voltage of the electrical signal after the initial number of drops to eject drops of ink in a pattern of printed ink drops with reference to a remaining portion of the image data, and generates the electrical signal.
