Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for print quality management. One embodiment is a system for identifying print quality at a printer. The system includes a memory that stores reference data for nozzles of a printer, and a controller. The controller is configured to acquire measurement data after operation of the nozzles, calculate differences between the reference data and the measurement data, apply the differences as an input to an isolation forest, operate the isolation forest to determine isolation values for the nozzles, identify nozzles having more than a threshold amount of deviation from the reference data based on the isolation values, and generate a report flagging the identified nozzles for maintenance.
