1. A method for implementing a selected profile for jet detection in a printing system, the printing system comprising a processor for processing documents containing image data, a plurality of jets for outputting test images and document images onto an imageable surface, and a jet detection device comprising at least one or more sensors for reading the output test images on the imageable surface to detect faulty jets, the method comprising the following acts implemented by the processor: providing a plurality of profiles for the jet detection device to a user interface associated with the printing system, each profile comprising at least a time and a location for printing output test images on the imageable surface using one or more of the plurality of jets and sensing using the at least one or more sensors; receiving a selected profile of the plurality of profiles selected for jet detection; determining at least the time and the location for printing output test images on the imageable surface, and implementing the selected profile for one or more print jobs of the printing system.
