Abstract
A printer is disclosed. The printer determines the width of media to be printed on. When the width of the media is below a threshold the printer prints using multiple printing passes where the amount of ink is divided between the multiple printing passes with a first distribution. When the width of the media is not below the threshold the printer prints using multiple printing passes where the amount of ink is divided between the multiple printing passes with a second, different distribution.
