DETERMINATION OF A DELAY VALUE IN RESPONSE TO A DETERMINATION THAT A DETECTED TEMPERATURE IS OUTSIDE OF A TARGET TEMPERATURE RANGE

摘要

A method of determining a delay value by an image forming system may include transporting a media along a media transport path by a media transport unit, heating the media by a heating unit, providing a plurality of print passes across the media transport path by a print head assembly, and applying ink to the media to form an image including a plurality of swaths by the print head assembly such that a respective swath is formed on the media corresponding to a respective print pass. The method may also include detecting a temperature of the media by a temperature module to determine whether the detected temperature is outside of a target temperature range, and determining a delay value by a delay determination module in response to a determination that the detected temperature is outside of the target temperature range.
