Abstract

A system and a method for printing a desired pattern on a substrate, the method may include: receiving or generating printing instructions for printing multiple patterns during multiple printing iterations, wherein at least two different printing iterations are expected to be executed by different sets of nozzles of an array of nozzles, wherein a superposition of the multiple patterns is expected to differ from the desired pattern by a tolerable difference even when a nozzle of the array of nozzles malfunctions; and printing the multiple patterns during multiple printing iterations, wherein at least two different printing iterations are expected to be executed by different sets of nozzles of the array of nozzles.
