Scanning synchronization error in a projection imaging system is controlled by obtaining one or more scanning synchronization error maps comprising a plurality of error components, obtaining one or more focal plane deviation (FPD) error maps comprising a plurality of error components, separating the one or more synchronization error maps and one or more FPD error map error components into one or more repeatable and non-repeatable parts, converting the repeatable parts into one or more mathematical models that express the repeatable parts in mode correctable and uncorrectable terms, inputting lens distortion map data, scanning synchronization error map data, FPD error map data, and the one or more mathematical models into a database linked to a process controller that executes process control algorithms, and correcting scanner motion of the projection imaging system based on output from the process controller.
