Abstract
According to one example, a printer includes an inkjet printhead, and the printhead comprises nozzles through which printing fluid is ejectable during a pass of the printhead across a print zone. Processing printhead control data includes obtaining printhead control data describing pixel locations in an image to be printed on a media, and allocating, for a swath of the image, each of the pixel locations to a printhead nozzle and to a print pass of a set of print passes in accordance with a print mask. The print mask defines sections associated different groups of the nozzles.
