Abstract: A method of using an inkjet printer to print an input digital image containing at least one color channel having a plurality of rows and columns of pixels sampled at a first resolution, each pixel having a code value, includes partitioning the input digital image into a set of spatially non-overlapping blocks; computing an average code value for each block responsive to the pixels in the input digital image that correspond to the block; computing an image quality score for each block responsive to the average code value for that block; determining a print mode in response to the image quality scores for the set of blocks; and printing the image on the inkjet printer using the print mode.

Abstract: A computer implemented method of rendering a print job comprises determining that a last page of a print job comprises insignificant text or no text. Modifying the print job in response to this determination is then performed, which can include deleting the last page, displaying a user interface for presenting options for implementing the step of modifying the print job, or reducing a margin of the text on the last page of the print job.
