The invention relates to a method for printing image material (), which lies on top of a sheet carrier (), in an inkjet printer. The inkjet printer comprises an inkjet print head (), which only partially covers the image material (). The image material () is printed during a temporally successive relative movement, occurring in the x and y directions, between the inkjet print head () and the sheet carrier ().

An apparatus for optically projecting pixel-based image information onto a light-sensitive material has an image-generating device, an optical projection device, and a device for laterally offsetting the projected image of the image-generating device to produce a plurality of mutually offset partial images in the image plane. The offsetting device has two optical elements arranged in sequence in the light path of the projection. The projected partial images are offset relative to each other by tilting one or both of the optical elements.

A device and method are disclosed for exposing a digital image onto light-sensitive material. The device includes an image generation device that is controlled by a control device according to image data. In addition, the device has an optical system for reproducing the image onto light-sensitive material that is supported by a stage. A beam splitter, located in the exposure beam path, directs a portion of the light emitted by the image generation device onto a light sensor that has at least one sensor line.

A device for borderless printing on imaging material by means of an ink jet printer has a support surface against which the imaging material lies while printing ink is applied to it during the printing process. The support surface has cutouts and is hydrophobic and/or oil-repellant, so as to repel printing ink that is sprayed outside the borders of the imaging material.

A method and a device for reproducing originals onto light-sensitive materials is described where unsharp masks for changing the reproduction process or the density values to be reproduced are determined from the density values of the original and from pre-specified gradation factors. Several different gradation factors are used to determine the mask of an original.
