A method adjusts operation of a printer in accordance with an analysis of image content used to generate printed images. The method includes measuring image content of a first print image, comparing the measured image content to a predetermined threshold, and altering a print process parameter to adjust operation of a printer component in response to the measured image content exceeding the threshold.

System and method for optimizing printing throughput and print quality by evaluating image content

A method of printing a test pattern including printing cyan or magenta in a test region using a default printer half-tone, printing a yellow in a reference area portion of the test region using a coarse clustered dot half-tone, and printing different levels of yellow in test patch regions of the test region using a default printer half-tone.

Method for printing a visual printer calibration test pattern

A method of printing with phase change ink on an ink jet printer that contains multiple levels of black gray scale ink and a clear or slightly tinted wax ink base and which is applied to the roughened surface of an adhesion promoting coating applied to a transparent substrate is disclosed. The adhesion promoting coating has a surface roughness of greater than about 0.5 micrometers and contains a binder and an inorganic particulate material.
