高速受像面を用いるプリンタ動作におけるインクジェットの処理方向位置合わせのためのシステムおよび方法

摘要

A method for process direction registration in an inkjet printer includes ejecting ink drops from a first inkjet at less than a maximum operating rate onto an image receiving surface moving in a process direction. The method includes generating image data samples of the image receiving surface including the ink drops. The method further includes identifying a center of the ink drops in the process direction with reference to the image data samples and storing a time offset value in a memory to correct an identified process direction offset between the identified center of the ink drops and another identified center of ink drops that are ejected by another inkjet.
