    摘要: A diagnostic routine for determining the cause of color non-uniformity in a full color image forming device, by selecting a substation of one print station and using it in combination with a substation from another print station, while functionally omitting the intervening substations. The charge setting on the charge substation is adjusted to compensate for the increased distance between the charge substation, and the developing substation in this method.

    摘要: Methods for automated uniformity assessment and modification of image non-uniformities using an image measurement device capable of determining image reflectance and/or transmitter as a function of position, such as a spectrophotometer, a calorimeter, and/or a densitometer. One or more of these devices scan an image on a substrate, such as a sheet, thereby generating data representing image characteristics, such as, for example, image non-uniformity. The sheet may contain a reference/test pattern including one column, strip or patch intended to have a uniform density. This data generated by the device after the scan of the substrate is analyzed with signal processing algorithms for image characteristics assessment, including image spatial uniformity and compared to reference image characteristics including image spatial uniformity. An image modification profile may be generated to be applied to a marking system to thereby alter subsequent image data and improve image spatial uniformity of the marking system.

    摘要: A system changes the setpoint of a digital reprographic system in response to the local image content by utilizing tag data that contains information identifying the image content type of a corresponding image data pixel. The system modifies the reproduction characteristics of the output to accommodate the diverse image content types by simultaneously controlling the overall tone reproduction curve of the system on a pixel-by-pixel basis.

    摘要: A method for monitoring an image printing system that prints color images on an image bearing surface movable in a process direction is provided. The method includes placing marking material to form a row comprising a plurality of registration marks on the image bearing surface, wherein each row of registration marks extends along a cross-process direction transverse to the process direction; detecting a position of each registration mark using a linear array sensor extending in the cross-process direction, wherein the position of each registration mark is detected in both the process and cross-process direction; determining a process direction misregistration between the registration marks of each row in the process direction and cross-process direction misregistration between registration marks from each of the rows.

    摘要: A method and system compensates for streak defects in an image formed using a raster output scanning device. A reflectance profile is generated from an image generated by the raster output scanning device. Thereafter, a difference profile is determined. The difference profile is determined based upon the generated reflectance profile and a uniform profile. A compensation profile is generated based on the determined difference profile. The compensation profile represents a change in an intensity profile for the raster output scanning device.
