    摘要: A print mode determination method is disclosed. The method comprises receiving image data defining parameters of pixels of an image to be printed using a print apparatus; identifying, based on the image data, a first fill area in the image that exceeds a defined threshold area, wherein the first fill area is to be printed in a first color; determining, based on the image data, a first proportion of print agent of each of a plurality of colors to be used to print the first color; and determining, based on the determined first proportions of print agent, a print mode to be used by the print apparatus to print the image. An apparatus and a machine-readable medium are also disclosed.

    摘要: A colorant value adjustment method is disclosed. The method comprises obtaining data defining colorant values for a plurality of print addressable locations representative of pixels of an image to be printed during a printing operation, wherein each colorant value is representative of an amount of colorant to be delivered from a print nozzle to a corresponding print addressable location as the print nozzle moves between the print addressable locations during the printing operation. The method comprises determining, based on the obtained data, a measure of time that the print nozzle is not to deposit colorant immediately prior reaching a first print addressable location. The method comprises determining, based on the determined measure of time, an adjustment to be applied to the colorant value at the first print addressable location. The method comprises applying the adjustment to the colorant value for the first print addressable location. An apparatus and a machine-readable medium are also disclosed.
