Abstract
A method of controlling a system including an arrangement of at least two nozzles, wherein the arrangement and the shape move relative to each other, each nozzle traces a respective path on the shape, and each nozzle is configured to jet drops at actual jetting locations along the respective path of the nozzle. The method results in sequence of actuation events received from a control signal to be more frequent than would be needed for an arrangement printing on a flat surface to produce the required dot resolution. It is then possible to select which of the individual nozzles are to jet for a given actuation event from the sequence so that the actual jetting locations deviate from the target jetting locations by no ore than a define maximum error distance.
