    Abstract: An imaging module including a plurality of imaging systems for capturing images of a receiver medium. An illumination system illuminates the receiver medium with an illumination pattern. First and second imaging systems are positioned to capture images of the receiver medium, each including at least a portion of the illumination pattern. The first and second images are analyzed to determine a relative position of the illumination pattern in the first and second images. Imaging system alignment parameters for use in aligning images captured with the first and second imaging systems are determined responsive to the determined relative position.

    Abstract: A method of printing includes printing first and second patterns at first and second locations on first and second sides of a media using first and second printheads, respectively. First and second fiducial images including a fiducial origin are captured using first and second cameras, respectively. First and second pattern images of the first and second patterns are captured using the first and second cameras, respectively. The locations of the first and second patterns relative to the fiducial origin are determined using an image registration controller. A relative printed location of the first pattern and the second pattern is determined. A deviation is determined by comparing the determined relative location of the first and second printed patterns with an intended relative location of the first and second printed patterns. The determined deviation is compensated for by adjusting at least one of the first and second printheads so that subsequently printed first and second pattern have the intended relative print locations.

    Abstract: A first registration mark is printed by a first printhead on print media at a first initial encoder value. A second registration mark is printed by a second printhead on print media at a second initial encoder value. The second registration mark is spaced apart from the first registration mark. The first and second registration marks are detected using the mark detection system as each is transported past the mark detection system. The displacement signal is used to measure a displacement of the print media between the detection of the second and first registration marks by the mark detection system. A cue delay value is determined for the second printhead so that a subsequently printed first image plane and a second image plane are registered relative to each other using the displacement, the first initial encoder value, and the second initial encoder value.

    Abstract: A cue delay circuit for an ink jet printing system includes a state machine with sequenced logic circuits that generate buffered control signals; a counter that counts one of the buffered control signals to form a read address; and an adder that combines the read address to the cue delay value to generate a write address. A comparator compares the cue delay value to the read address to determine if the read address is greater than the cue delay value. A multiplexer receives the read and write address and one of the buffered control signals and forms a multiplexer output. The system includes a gate circuit that receives the latched comparator output and the RAM output signal forming a gated cue signal; and a logic circuit that sends a signal to the printing system.

    Abstract: A system for recording an image utilizes a microencapsulated media wherein the microcapsules contain an image forming agent and a photohardenable composition. A cathode ray tube has a faceplate formed from an array of parallel optical fibers and a phosphor coating applied on an inside surface of the faceplate. The cathode ray tube is controlled to write the image onto the coating so as to scroll the image over the coating. The imaging sheet is supported and moved past the faceplate at a rate equal to the scroll rate, whereby an entire image is exposed onto the sheet. Adapting such a system to full-color images is also disclosed.

    Abstract: A digital plate maker system to receive graphics and text data and selectively discharge incremental areas of a charged electrophotographic member to form thereon the latent images represented by the graphics and text data, the imaged member thereafter being toned and output from the system. Thereafter, the toned image may be fused on the member and the member being used in an offset lithographic printing press. The digital platemaker system includes an optical system which may form a maximum of 22 individual rays which are direct deflected twice through a field flattening lens and then onto the charged member. The optical system further includes an optical scale or grating which provides electrical signals indicating the precise location of the individual rays along scan lines on the member. The digital plate maker system further includes an electronic system which generates electrical signals to form the 22 individual rays. The text data is used to modulate signals produced by the graphics data, the result of the modulation being the beam control signals used to form the 22 individual rays. The digital plate maker system further includes a toning system which provides a vertical meniscus which is essentially stationary with the electrophotographic member as the electrophotographic member is rotated past the toning station.

A second registration mark is printed by a second printhead on print media at a second initial encoder value. The second registration mark is spaced apart from the first registration mark. The first and second registration marks are detected using the mark detection system as each is transported past the mark detection system. The displacement signal is used to measure a displacement of the print media between the detection of the second and first registration marks by the mark detection system.
