Abstract

A method of color printing with an ink jet printing head adapted to print one strip for each color and comprising nozzles disposed in distinct groups (22) for each color, with a different number of nozzles from group to group. Each group is separated from the subsequent group by intervals (DCM, DMY) of different magnitude. The method consists of printing strips of a subsequent color only after having printed at least two strips of a first color and superimposing each subsequent color on the first of the two strips printed previously.
