ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus are described for accelerating a printer carriage motor for variable durations depending upon the available time between a lateral carriage stop and the first data to be printed in a given swath. The printer's controller is programmed to preview buffered print data, to determine for each print swath when the first printable matter will be printed and to cause the carriage motor to accelerate a variably greater length of time until such printable matter is to be printed. The controller causes the printhead to prim such printable matter in each swath at variably higher speeds representing the amount of time the motor was accelerated.
