Abstract: A printing system is disclosed. The printing system includes at least one physical memory device to store nozzle correction logic and one or more processors coupled with at least one physical memory device to execute the nozzle correction logic to receive a uniformity compensated transfer function for each of a plurality of pel forming elements, receive an average missing neighbor transfer function, receive a defective nozzles list including one or more of the plurality of pel forming elements indicated as defective during print production; and perform missing neighbor processing by applying the average missing neighbor transfer function associated with the pel forming element determined to be a neighbor of a defective pel forming element.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for reviewing printed jobs. On embodiment is a system comprising a print review device. The print review device includes a memory that stores an image of a test pattern printed by printheads of a printer, and a controller that generates a Graphical User Interface (GUI), for presentation at a display, depicting states of the printheads based on the image, receives input from a user selecting one of the printheads, correlates the printhead with a portion of the image, and presents the portion of the image for review at the GUI. The controller also identifies locations on the portion that are correlated with nozzles of the printhead, and selectively highlights the locations based on state information for the nozzles.
