A method and apparatus for drying liquid ink deposited, in response to image data, on a recording medium moving along a path at a predetermined rate. A recording medium having liquid ink deposited thereon is moved past a dryer in multiple passes to dry areas of high ink coverage. Ink characteristics are optimized for minimum print defects by determining the time between printing and drying. In the case of text only images only one pass through the dryer is required. For areas of high ink coverage, however, multiple passes through the dryer are required and completed either by reciprocation or recirculation at the same predetermined rate.
