Thermal recording with variable energy density involves setting energy density for point suitable for writing onto selected material by selecting point dimension in writing direction

摘要

The method involves generating a recording point smaller than one pixel in a write direction; setting an energy density for the point (4) suitable for writing onto a selected material (3) by selecting a point dimension in the writing direction; and writing a pixel onto a piece of the selected material by passing the writing point over the pixel in the writing direction.. An Independent claim is also included for an imaging system.
