Abstract
The present invention relates to a printer control system and a method for controlling the printing of an object on a support in a number of pass images on top of each other. The object has a surface of varying height. The printer control system comprises a user interface having a display device and arranged to visualize in a window on the display device a preview image before printing of the object. The preview image comprises a representation of the surface of the object. The printer control system further comprises an analysis section which is configured to analyze the pass images in order to predict before printing the object a location of a contouring artefact at the surface of the object, and a transformation section which is configured to transform the predicted location into a contour representation to be added to the preview image. The contour representation is visually distinguishable from the representation of the surface of the object in the preview image.
