Abstract
Disclosed is a system for controlling the print speed of a color graphics printer to allow the printer to track the host data rate adjusted for image resolution. The print speed adjusts automatically to match the effective host data rate in print lines per second, and maintains a well behaved speed response characteristic independent of data resolution. The system filters abrupt changes in the rate of the data being received from the host so that the printer operates within its slew rate limitations.
