Method and apparatus for printing large format lenticular images

摘要

A method and apparatus for printing large format lenticular images on a lenticular sheet (902) having a plurality of generally parallel lenticules (903) on a front side of the lenticular sheet (902). A sensor (209) senses a beginning of each lenticule (903). A printhead (102) prints interleaved image information on the lenticular sheet (902) in a series of swaths (220). A width of each of the swaths (220) is less than a width of the lenticular sheet (902). Each of the swaths (220) is printed in a direction parallel to the lenticules (903) and each of the swaths (220) is printed in a direction perpendicular to the lenticules (903).
