    • A halftoning technique is disclosed which uses look-up tables to identify a combination of color ink drops (device states) to be printed by an inkjet printer. The look-up tables are indexed by a particular color to be reproduced. An error is also output by the look-up tables reflecting the difference between the indexing tone level and the printed color spot. The error is applied in a halftoning process to neighboring pixels. A plurality of look-up tables is used, and one of the look-up tables is selected for a particular medium (e.g., glossy paper, plain paper) to be printed upon. In this manner, the number and combination of ink drops can be optimize for a particular type of medium. In one embodiment, six different color inks are used by the printer.
    • 公开了一种半色调技术,其使用查找表来识别由喷墨打印机打印的彩色墨滴(装置状态)的组合。 查找表由要重现的特定颜色索引。 查询表也会输出错误,反映了索引音级与打印色点之间的差异。 该错误在半色调处理中应用于相邻像素。 使用多个查找表,并且为要打印的特定介质(例如光面纸,普通纸)选择一个查找表。 以这种方式,可以针对特定类型的介质优化墨滴的数量和组合。 在一个实施例中,打印机使用六种不同颜色的油墨。

    • An automatic system forms color LUTs (or LUT-forming data) for automated reference—typically in error diffusion (ED). A first aspect is for printers with six or more colorants. Three ramps, for different basic colorants, are photometrically measured; mainly just those results yield a transform from 3D color to system colorants. In a second aspect, some device-state candidate colors are chosen for black replacement. In a variant the choice is subject to (1) maintaining some chromatic colorant in each pixel with black; or (2) modifying use patterns to avoid alternative use of composite black vs. black; or (3) adjustments to allow for composite nonequivalence to black. A related third aspect allows replacement only if there is a given minimum amount of composite. In a fourth aspect, candidate states are dropped that have small changes in number of quanta per pixel, or no companion light colorant quantum with each dark one, best eliminating those with too many quanta of each or all colorants. In a related fifth aspect, one state is assigned to each major entry based on, at a gamut surface except at the dark end, favoring states nearer the surface over those nearer a desired major entry; and at the neutral axis, especially its dark end, favoring real black. Other assigning is best done by entry nearness. In a sixth aspect preferably 1D LUTs are formed for finding major entries based on an input-color spec, not monotonic in entry assignment to indices; precomputed ED distributions attach to indices. In a seventh aspect a state LUT formed to access states based on input specs is used to print nominal neutral colors and measured results used to adjust access. In an eighth facet related to the first, the ramps correspond to fundamental combinations of single colorants, e. g. secondaries.
    • 自动系统形成用于自动参考的颜色LUT(或LUT形成数据) - 通常在误差扩散(ED)中。 第一方面是用于具有六种或更多种着色剂的打印机。 对于不同的基础着色剂的三个斜坡进行光度测量; 主要只是这些结果产生了从3D颜色到系统着色剂的转换。 在第二方面,一些设备状态候选颜色被选择用于黑色替换。 在一个变型中,选择受(1)在每个像素中保持黑色的一些彩色着色剂; 或(2)修改使用模式以避免复合黑与黑的替代使用; 或(3)调整以允许复合非等价到黑色。 相关的第三方面允许仅在给定最小量的复合材料时进行替换。 在第四方面,丢弃具有每像素的量子数量的小变化的候选状态,或者每个黑色量子的伴随光着色剂量子化,最好消除具有每个或所有着色剂的量子太多的候选状态。 在相关的第五方面中,除了在黑暗端以外的色域表面,一个状态被分配给每个主入口,有利于靠近表面的状态比靠近期望的主要条目更近的状态; 在中性轴上,特别是它的黑暗末端,有利于真正的黑色。 其他分配最好通过进入附近进行。 在第六方面,优选地,1D LUT被形成用于基于输入颜色规范找到主要条目,在对索引的条目分配中不是单调的; 预先计算的ED分发附加到索引。 在第七方面,用于基于输入规格访问状态的状态LUT用于打印用于调整访问的标称中性色和测量结果。 在与第一个相关的第八个方面,斜坡对应于单一着色剂的基本组合,例如, G。 次要

    • A method, for adjusting the color balance of printheads in a color printer, utilizes a matrix of image data including a reference image data set for a reference image and a plurality of color modified image data sets for plural color modified images. The reference image data set includes in-balance component color data values and each of the color-modified image data sets include out-of-balance component color values. A printer is controlled to operate the printheads to print the reference image and each of the color modified images at pre-determined locations on a media sheet in accord with the matrix of image data. If the printheads are not properly adjusted, the printed reference image and each of the color modified images appear positionally offset on the media sheet. A user, upon examining the media sheet selects one image on the media sheet as the reference image (e.g., the image which exhibits best black/white characteristics and contrast). In response to that selection, control signals are altered to the printheads in accord with component color values that are initially established for the matrix position that is now occupied by the image selected as the reference image. Such component color values are thereafter used to correct for subsequent printing.
    • 一种用于调整彩色打印机中的打印头的色彩平衡的方法利用了包括用于参考图像的参考图像数据集和多个颜色修正图像数据组的图像数据矩阵,用于多个颜色修正图像。 参考图像数据组包括平衡分量颜色数据值,并且每个颜色修正图像数据组包括不平衡分量颜色值。 控制打印机以操作打印头以根据图像数据的矩阵将参考图像和每个颜色修改的图像打印在介质片上的预定位置。 如果打印头未正确调整,则打印的参考图像和每个颜色修改的图像在介质页上显示为位置偏移。 用户在检查介质页时选择介质页上的一个图像作为参考图像(例如,显示最佳黑/白特征和对比度的图像)。 响应于该选择,控制信号根据最初为被选作参考图像的图像所占据的矩阵位置最初建立的分量颜色值而改变为打印头。 此后使用这种组分颜色值来校正随后的打印。

    • Incremental printing apparatus preferably includes a system for steering the error-diffusion system to respond, to a near-gray or near-yellow input color, with a preselection of a color toward one color plane or toward another color plane. This is not a threshold system. Preferably the steering system operates toward one of the color planes depending on which plane is closer to an input color signal (which includes accumulated error from pixels processed previously, as well as the original signal for a pixel being processed). Preferably the apparatus essentially forecloses use of different inks in adjacent pixels, as distinguished from only modifying a likelihood of using different inks. Preferably the system operates in particular portions of color space that are near a yellow axis. Preferably the two color planes are a cyan and a magenta plane. Preferably the system minimizes granularity in highlight or near-yellow regions of a printed image by causing cyan colorant and magenta colorant in highlight or near-yellow regions to be deposited exclusively remote from one another. Preferably the steering system include portions of a lookup table, and the minimization is effected by contours (preferably diagonal) of permitted cyan and magenta colorant deposition within the table. The invention also includes a method of preparing the table.
    • 增量打印装置优选地包括一个系统,用于使误差扩散系统转向近灰色或接近黄色的输入颜色,其中选择一种颜色朝向一个彩色平面或另一个颜色平面。 这不是门槛系统。 优选地,转向系统根据哪个平面更靠近输入颜色信号(其包括先前处理的像素的累积误差以及正在处理的像素的原始信号)而朝着彩色平面中的一个运行。 优选地,该设备基本上禁止在相邻像素中使用不同的墨水,区别于仅改变使用不同墨水的可能性。 优选地,该系统特别是在黄色轴线附近的颜色空间部分。 优选地,两个颜色平面是青色和品红色平面。 优选地,通过使高亮或近黄色区域中的青色着色剂和品红色着色剂彼此远离地沉积,该系统最小化打印图像的高亮或近黄色区域的粒度。 优选地,转向系统包括查找表的部分,并且最小化通过在桌子内允许的青色和品红色着色剂沉积的轮廓(优选对角线)来实现。 本发明还包括一种制备该表的方法。

    • Preferably, test-patterns print on separate, multiple print-medium cards, each including a ramp with colors graded along a certain direction—and, superimposed on the ramp, a candidate add-on colorant. Ramps preferably are printed in so-called “customer colors”, common in snapshots and particularly snapshot regions that include sky. Positions or amounts of the candidate add-on colorant canvass a likely range of values that optimize camouflaging or suppression of a banding artifact (due to seams in the pagewide array) that is extended along the same certain direction. For each seam and each “customer color” used, an operator holds up several cards for comparison, selecting the best one to three. Operators thus can evaluate candidate colorant patterns in context of many different tones of the sky and other customer colors. Preferably banding suppression is integrated with linearization: at each seam a series of linearization tables is smoothly interpolated between measurement-based tables for adjacent inkjet dice.
    • 优选地,测试图案打印在单独的多个打印介质卡上,每个包括沿着特定方向分级的颜色的斜面,并且叠加在斜面上,候选的附加着色剂。 斜坡优选地以所谓的“客户颜色”打印,在快照中特别是包括天空的快照区域中。 候选者附加色素的位置或数量可以绘制一些可能的范围的值,该值可以优化伪装或抑制条纹伪影(由于页面范围阵列中的接缝)而沿同一特定方向延伸。 对于每个接缝和每个“客户颜色”使用,操作员拿起几张卡进行比较,选择最好的一到三个。 因此,操作者可以在天空和其他客户颜色的许多不同色调的背景下评估候选着色剂图案。 优选地,带状抑制与线性化集成:在每个接缝处,在相邻喷墨骰子的基于测量的表之间平滑地插入一系列线性化表。
