Abstract
In a method to control printing elements of an ink print head for ejection of a respective ink droplet, respective control voltages are applied to activators of the printing elements. The control voltages comprise at least one vibration voltage pulse that induces at least one vibration oscillation in the associated printing element, and an associated print dot voltage pulse that induces an ejection of the respective ink droplet by the associated printing element. The at least one vibration voltage pulse is chronologically arranged before the associated print dot voltage pulse, and an amplitude of the at least one vibration voltage pulse is respectively chosen depending on a size of the respective ink droplet to be subsequently emitted by the respective printing element.
