Printing method and apparatus |
摘要 |
An apparatus and method for use in printing a swath in a multipass printing device are disclosed. The method comprises selectively depositing a drop of ink associated with a pixel to be printed on a print media based on a substantially uniform print mask function during a first pass of a print head, and selectively depositing a further drop of ink associated with the pixel on the print media based on a ramp print mask function during a further pass of the print head. |

1. A method for use in printing a swath in a multipass printing device, the method comprising:
for one layer of a multi-layer print mask, selectively depositing a drop of ink associated with a pixel to be printed on a print media based on a substantially uniform print mask function; for another layer of the multi-layer print mask, selectively depositing another drop of ink associated with the pixel on the print media based on a non-uniform print mask function; and for one or more additional layers of the multi-layer print mask, selectively depositing one or more additional drops of ink associated with the pixel on the print media based on one or more additional non-uniform print mask functions. |
