Abstract
An example device in accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure includes a controller to adjust print speed intra-page according to a response curve to substantially track a power curve of a power supply. The controller is to maximize print speed based on short-term energy data corresponding to present and future print data and long-term energy data corresponding to past print data, without exceeding a peak power output and a thermal limit of the power supply when printing according to the response curve.
