    摘要: A printing system is disclosed. The printing system includes at least one physical memory device to store calibration logic and one or more processors coupled with the at least one physical memory device to execute the calibration logic to receive a reference halftone design, receive reference ink drop size data, receive a reference printer transfer function corresponding to the reference halftone design, a reference printer response target and a reference print substrate, receive first print measurement data corresponding to the reference halftone design, the reference printer transfer function and a first print substrate, receive first printer response target, generate a first intermediate print substrate transfer function based on the first print measurement data and the first printer response target, generate a first printer transfer function based on the first intermediate print substrate transfer function, the reference halftone design, the reference ink drop size data and the reference printer transfer function and generate a first print substrate transfer function as an approximation of a function with input values determined as the first printer transfer function evaluated at digital count values and output values determined as the composition of the first intermediate print substrate transfer function and the reference printer transfer function evaluated at the digital count values, wherein a transfer function comprises a mapping of an input digital count to an output digital count.

    摘要: A system is disclosed. The system includes at least one physical memory device to store calibration logic and one or more processors coupled with the at least one physical memory device to execute the calibration logic to receive an image having a blended input color comprising a first primary color value and a second primary color value, generate blend weights for the blended input color based on the first primary color value and the second primary color value, receive a plurality of halftone designs corresponding to each of the first primary color value and the second primary color values and apply the blend weights and the plurality of halftone designs to the first primary color value and the second primary color value to generate a uniformity corrected halftone design associated with the first primary color value and a uniformity corrected halftone design associated with the second primary color value.

    摘要: A system is disclosed. The system at least one physical memory device to store ink estimation logic and one or more processors coupled with the at least one physical memory device, to execute the ink estimation logic to receive a histogram for each of a plurality of color planes, receive uncalibrated ink deposition data for a printing system, perform a direct conversion of the uncalibrated ink deposition data to generate first calibrated ink deposition data and generate estimated ink usage data for each of the plurality of color planes based on the histograms and the first calibrated ink deposition data.

    摘要: A system is disclosed. The system at least one physical memory device to store monitoring logic and one or more processors coupled with the at least one physical memory device, to execute the monitoring logic to receive a first and a second ink deposition data representing an output ink amount versus an input digital count for each of a plurality of color planes, determine whether a difference between the first ink deposition data and the second ink deposition data exceeds a predetermined threshold and transmit a signal upon a determination that the difference between the first ink deposition data and the second ink deposition data exceeds the predetermined threshold.
