Abstract
A printing apparatus is disclosed. The printing apparatus comprises a printhead and a controller. The printhead is to spit a printing fluid comprising a first mode and a second mode. The first mode corresponds to using a first energy level to spit the printing fluid and the second mode corresponds to using a second energy level to spit the printing fluid. The second energy level comprises a higher energy level than the first energy level. The controller is to determine a decap risk zone associated with the printing fluid, determine in view of the decap risk zone a decap location, and instruct the printhead to spit using the second mode at the decap location.
