contents This paper proposes an improved model of height profile for drop-on-demand printing of UV curable ink. Unlike previous model, the proposed model propagates volume and covered area based on height difference between adjacent drops. Height profile is then calculated from the propagated volume and area. Measurements of 2-drop and 3-drop patterns are used to experimentally compute model parameters. The parameters are used to predict and validate height profiles of 4 and more drops in a straight line. Using the same root mean square (RMS) error as benchmark, this model achieves 5.9% RMS height profile error on 4-drop lines. This represents more than 60% reduction from graph-based model and an improvement from our previous effort.
