ABSTRACT:
An inkjet printer controller includes a processor for receiving incoming data relating to a description of a page to be printed. A memory in the form of a hard disk, in which the data are stored, is connected to the processor. The controller includes at least one raster image processor for rasterizing and compressing the data. The page data has image data and text data. The text data is compressed separately from the image data. A printhead controller receives, decompresses and processes the data for printing via a printhead under control of the printhead controller.
