Abstract

A printer control system for controlling the printing of an object on a support in a number of passes on top of each other includes a user interface which has a display device and is arranged to visualize in a window on the display device a pixel-precise preview image before printing of the object. The preview image includes a representation of the surface of the object. The printer control system further includes a digital analyser for analysing the pass images in order to deduce before printing of the object locations of smooth areas at the surface of the object, and a preview emulator for digitally shining on the pixel-precise preview. The printer control system calculates a digital move path to be applied by the preview emulator over the pixel-precise preview based on the locations of the smooth areas in order to highlight regions of interest with a potential print artefact.
