摘要： A color image printing apparatus prints one pixel by superposing a predetermined dots of three colors within a 3.times.3 dot matrix in accordance with a density of the pixel. The positions of the printed dots within the dot matrix are stored as a dot pattern for each color. One dot pattern is used for each of a plurality of densities included in one density range. The printing energy for each of the dots included in the dot pattern is controlled in accordance with the density level of the pixel. The dot pattern is different for each color and three dot patterns are stored for each color and for each density range. These three dot patterns are repeatedly used for every three pixels which are continuous in the horizontal direction. These three dot patterns have two or three texture directions. The texture direction other than the vertical direction is different for each color.

摘要： A halftone image printing device for printing an image consisting of picture elements arrayed in a zig-zag fashioning. Each picture element is composed of dots forming a quasi-diamond-shaped matrix. The dot matrix is a 2 (row) x 3 (column) matrix with two additional dots located at the top and bottom, respectively. The range of optical density, within which the densities represented by the picture elements fall, is segmented into sub-ranges. Different heating-resistors are assigned to each sub-range of density. The dots printed by the heating-resistors assigned to any sub-range of density forms a "dot pattern" of a specific shape. The first dot pattern has one dot printed on the upper-central part of the rectangular matrix. The second dot pattern has three dots forming an L-shaped pattern, the first dot printed on the upper-central part of the matrix, the second dot printed above the first dot, and the third dot printed to the right of the first dot. The third dot pattern consists of five dots forming a cross, the first dot printed on the upper-central part of the matrix, the second dot printed above the first dot, the third dot printed to the right of the first dot, the fourth dot printed below the first dot, and the fifth dot printed to the left of the first dot. And the fourth dot pattern consists of five dots forming a cross and an additional dot printed immediately below the cross. Of the dots of each dot pattern, the dot on which energy concentrates more than any other dot assumes the same location for all dot patterns.

摘要： A halftone image printing device represents an image using a pixel matrix, prints each pixel as a dot pattern constituted by predetermined dots in a dot matrix, and controls the dot pattern and the printing density (multilevel density) of each dot included in the dot pattern in accordance with the density (multilevel) of the pixel. An overall printing density range is divided into four density ranges, i.e., from the lowest to the highest density ranges, and each pixel is defined by a 3.times.3 dot matrix. A dot pattern in the lowest density range has a dot at the center of the matrix, a dot pattern in the next lowest range has dots at the center of the matrix and at positions above and to the right of the center, a dot pattern in the next highest density range has dots at the center of the matrix and at positions above, below, and to the right and left of the center, and a dot pattern in the highest density range has dots at the center of the matrix and at positions above, below, to the right, left, and upper right of the center. In order to print each dot at each density level in each density range, the level of energy supplied to the heating element of the thermal head corresponding to each dot is precisely controlled.

摘要： A half-tone image reproduction apparatus, which comprises a Dither matrix memory, constituted by a plurality of elements, for storing a multi-level Dither matrix having multi threshold levels assigned to the individual elements, input data supplying means for supplying the element on the Dither matrix and an input density level, and print dot forming means for forming print dots in accordance with the energy control level selectively read out from the Dither matrix memory. The energy control level stored in the Dither matrix memory is set in accordance with rules for changing the energy control level in accordance with a change in input density level. These rules are independently suitably determined for the respective partial density ranges which constitute a whole density range for the input density. According to this invention, gradation jump and deformation at a high density region can be prevented so that a half-tone image with smooth gradation and high resolution can be attained.

摘要： A thermal transfer color printer is disclosed for printing color images on individual sheets of paper. One sheet of paper at a time is removed from a stack of paper stored in a cassette and this sheet is transported by a reversible platen roller in a first or forward direction at a first predetermined rate. While the sheet of paper is gripped between the reversible platen roller and one or more pinch rollers, slack is removed by a slack removing device. A multicolored ink ribbon with successively arranged color segments also is transported in the first direction at the same predetermined rate. A thermal printhead presses against the reversible platen roller to press the ink ribbon and sheet of paper together as they move in the first direction. Energization of the thermal elements on the thermal printhead by color component signals corresponding to the current color of the ink ribbon causes the particular current color to be thermally and selectively transferred to the sheet of paper. The thermal printhead then disengages the platen roller and the sheet of paper is transported in a set distance in a second direction opposite the first direction, and at a second predetermined rate, in order to repeat the process of thermally transferring other colors to the sheet of paper. During the back and forth movement of the sheet of paper, the reversible platen roller and the pinch rollers continuously grip the sheet of paper.

摘要： A thermal transfer color printer for printing color images on individual sheets of paper. One sheet of paper at a time is removed from a stack of paper stored in a cassette and this sheet is transported by a reversible platen roller in a first or forward direction at a first predetermined rate. While the sheet of paper is gripped between the reversible platen roller and one or more pinch rollers, slack is removed by a slack removing device. A multicolored ink ribbon with successively arranged color segments also is transported in the first direction at the same predetermined rate. A thermal printhead presses against the reversible platen roller to press the ink ribbon and sheet of paper together as they move in the first direction. Energization of the thermal elements on the thermal printhead by color component signals corresponding to the current color of the ink ribbon causes the particular current color to be thermally and selectively transferred to the sheet of paper. The thermal printhead then disengages the platen roller and the sheet of paper is transported in a set distance in a second direction opposite the first direction, and at a second predetermined rate, in order to repeat the process of thermally transferring other colors to the sheet of paper. During the back and forth movement of the sheet of paper, the reversible platen roller and the pinch rollers continuously grip the sheet of paper in order to precisely control the position of the sheet of paper to thereby avoid distortion. A complete color image is formed on the sheet of paper by superimposing the multiple colors of the ink ribbon as the sheet of paper and the different colors of the ink ribbon repeatedly move past the selectively energized thermal elements of the thermal printhead.
