A technique for generating image reproduction.

摘要

A technique employing a plotter having a beam of variable intensity for generating a screened reproduction of an image including the steps of: providing a representation of an original containing information representing the input density values of the image, storing information in a screen memory and exposing a recording medium to record the screened reproduction of the image, the step of exposing including the step of: employing information stored in the screen memory and information representing the input density values of the image to determine non-arithmetically whether and at what intensity a laser is to be operated to expose the recording medium at a given location. <IMAGE>
