PROCESS FOR CREATING FACET-SPECIFIC ELECTRONIC BANDING COMPENSATION PROFILES FOR RASTER OUTPUT SCANNERS

摘要

Processes are presented for creating electronic banding compensation profiles for raster output scanner (ROS) devices by printing and scanning a test pattern having a series of strips extending along a process direction and spaced from one another along a cross process (fast scan) direction, analyzing the scanned data to determine facet-specific banding errors corresponding to individual strips, and selectively adjusting banding correction profiles to counteract the banding errors.
