METHOD FOR PROCESSING DIFFERENTIAL GLOSS IN HALFTONED IMAGE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for controlling gloss in general and allowing manipulation for overcoming differential gloss without requiring special toner/ink or changes in the fusing operation. SOLUTION: The method comprises the steps of: selecting a first halftone having a high apparent gloss characteristic; selecting a second halftone having a low apparent gloss characteristic while retaining an identical matching density characteristic to the first selected halftone; applying the first halftone to at least some portion of the halftone image; and, applying the second halftone to the remaining portion of the halftone image.
