Abstract
A method for stabilizing a print quality in an inkjet printing system is described. The inkjet printing system can include a nozzle arrangement that may be activated with a number of control signals that can be used to fire ink droplets with corresponding different droplet sizes onto a recording medium. In the method for stabilizing a print quality in an inkjet printing system, a rastered image for an image template can be created. The rastered image can be printable by the inkjet printing system using a subset of the different droplet sizes. Further, the nozzle arrangement can be activated with a control signal for an unused droplet size of the different droplet sizes to induce the nozzle arrangement to generate a prefire pulse.
