An inkjet printhead with an array of nozzles 26 and corresponding heaters 10 configured for heating printing fluid 20 to nucleate a vapor bubble 12 that ejects a drop 24 of the printing fluid through the nozzle. Drive circuitry 22 generates an electrical drive pulse to energize the heaters 10 and is configured to adjust the drive pulse power to vary the vapor bubble nucleation time. By varying the power of the pulse used to generate the bubble, the printhead can operate with small, efficiently generated bubbles during normal printing, or it can briefly operate with large high energy bubbles if it needs to recover decapped nozzles. |
