Conventional printer power systems are designed for each printer based on the power needs of each printer. The printer power systems are also designed to comply with energy related regulations or standards, such as Energy Star. An inkjet printing system may include a printhead, an ink supply that supplies liquid ink to the printhead, and an electronic controller that controls the printhead. The printhead ejects drops of ink through a plurality of nozzles or orifices toward a print medium, such as a sheet of paper, to print onto the print medium. Typically, the orifices are arranged in one or more columns or arrays such that properly sequenced ejection of ink from the orifices causes characters or other images to be printed upon the print medium as the printhead and the print medium are moved relative to each other by using a motor. Inkjet printing systems have a highly dynamic electrical and mechanical system, which uses high pulses of current for driving the motor and for driving the printhead to eject the drops of ink.
