A laser imaging device is described. The laser imaging device includes a first laser, a second laser, and a controller. The first laser provides a first scan line having a first starting point, and the second laser provides a second scan line having a second starting point based on an adjusted beam detect signal. The controller is configured to generate the adjusted beam detect signal using a delay code and a beam detect signal associated with the second laser to substantially horizontally align the second starting point with the first starting point.

An edge detection apparatus for detecting an edge on a surface. The apparatus comprises a source of coherent radiation for generating a radiation beam and directing the beam onto the surface. A radiation detector is located so as to detect radiation diffusely reflected, but not specularly reflected, from the surface. A system is provided for causing relative scanning movement between the radiation beam and the surface. A monitor is coupled to the detector for monitoring the intensity of the detected radiation.

摘要:
A printing apparatus (100) for printing digital images onto a photosensitive medium (140) employing, for exposure energy, a light source (20) that uses various arrays of LEDs (32). The printing apparatus (100) may form the print image using sequential modulation, one color at a time, or by applying all colors simultaneously. Arrangements of discrete LEDs (32) may include high-intensity devices configured with collector cones (41) arranged as a multicone structure (141), with parabolic reflectors (65), or collimating lenses (36). Large area LEDs (46) may alternately be used, arranged on an angled mounting surface (64), for example.

An image processing apparatus, comprising: an exposing device for exposing an image forming material so as to form a latent image on the image forming material based on image data; a developing device for developing and visualizing the latent image on the exposed image forming material so as to form an image; a measuring device for measuring the image density of the image on the developed image forming material; a calibrating device for forming a table to define a relation between an image signal and image density on the basis of plural different test image data and measured-image densities thereof; a storing device for storing a characteristic change model indicating a characteristic change of at least one of the exposing device and the developing device with time; a difference calculating device to calculate a density difference on the basis of the characteristic change model between the time of forming the table and the time of forming an image based on image signal of diagnostic image data; and a correcting device for correcting the table on the basis of the density difference calculated by the difference calculating device.
摘要:
A method for repositioning a mark on a belt after an image on paper registration process, which includes printing a test pattern, measuring at least one test pattern parameter, detecting a mark on a belt and detecting at least one imaging error associated therewith, using the at least one test pattern parameter and the at least one imaging error to determine the lateral distance required to shift a particular image to a desired location on the belt and shifting the image to the desired location.
摘要:
The timing sensors provided in the light-receiving part of a beam-detecting unit have different lengths in the sub-scanning direction. The beam-passing position sensors provided in the light-receiving part of the beam-detecting unit are longer than the timing sensors, in the sub-scanning direction. The intensity of a light beam is controlled in a reference-pitch measuring routine.
摘要:
An imaging apparatus (10) adapted for imaging onto a photosensitive medium (160) in one of a number of selectable image formats. A telecentric print lens assembly (132) can be indexed to any one of a plurality of positions along the output optical axis for imaging in a specific format. The print lens assembly (132) can be manually indexed or can be moved by a focus mechanism (80) under the control of a control logic processor (24).
摘要:
An electronic trapping implementation in imager with laser driver is provided by comparing an output image from the imager to a reference image to obtain a difference image and calculating one or more frequency and amplitude modulations based on the difference image and applying the one or more frequency and amplitude modulations to the imager until the difference image is eliminated.
