Abstract: A process for servicing and maintaining nozzles of a print head may comprise determining an idle time of a nozzle. The determined nozzle idle time may be used as part of printing fluid drop ejection.

Abstract: According to an example, in a method for mitigating damage to a plurality of drop generators in a printing system, data corresponding to an image to be printed on a media by the printing system may be accessed. In addition, the plurality of drop generators may be controlled to print the image on the media while mitigating damage to the plurality of drop generators and without shifting placement of the image on the media or shifting the plurality of drop generators in a direction perpendicular to a feed direction of the media.

Abstract: In an example, a non-transitory processor-readable medium stores code representing instructions that when executed by a processor cause a printing system to determine a text and line print mode or a graphics print mode to use for printing upcoming image content. The printing system selects a first nozzle column to print the image content when the text and line print mode is determined, and selects a second nozzle column to print the image content when the graphics print mode is determined.

Abstract: Described herein is a media composition. The media composition includes a substrate and an ink receiving layer that includes binder that includes an ethylene-vinyl alcohol co-polymer with a glass transition temperature of 75 degrees Celsius or less, a melting point temperature of 175 degrees Celsius or less, and/or a crystallization temperature of 150 degrees Celsius or less. The ink receiving layer can be applied to a substrate using extrusion techniques.

Abstract: The present disclosure is drawn to fabric print media and a method of coating a fabric substrate to form a fabric print medium. The fabric print medium can comprise a fabric substrate, a primer layer applied to the fabric substrate, and an ink-receiving layer applied to the primer layer. The primer layer can include a film-forming polymer and a phosphorus- or nitrogen-containing compound. The ink-receiving layer can comprise a phosphorus- or nitrogen-containing compound, a cationic metal complex, and non-deformable particles.

Abstract: A composition includes a mixture of a first polymer and a second polymer. The first polymer is selected from the group consisting of a polymer including ethylene residues and vinyl alcohol residues and a polymer including vinyl alcohol residues. The second polymer includes ethylene residues, vinyl acetate residues and maleic anhydride residues. An amount of the first polymer in the mixture is about 50% to about 95% by weight. An ink-printable composition includes the above composition as an ink-receiving material.

Abstract: A composition includes a mixture including a first polymer and a second polymer. The first polymer includes methyl acrylate or ethyl acrylate residues in an amount of about 15% to about 25% by weight of the first polymer, maleic anhydride residues in an amount of about 2% to about 3.5% by weight of the first polymer, and ethylene residues. The second polymer includes butyl acrylate residues in an amount of about 5% to about 10% by weight of the second polymer, maleic anhydride residues in an amount of about 3% to about 4% by weight of the second polymer, and ethylene residues. An amount of the first polymer in the mixture is about 60% to about 90% by weight. The mixture may further include a pigment-LDPE composition wherein the amount of the first polymer in the mixture is about 50% to about 70% by weight.
