Abstract
A half tone color image recording method is provided in which picture cells of a same main scanning line are staggered such that every second picture cell is shifted in a sub scan direction orthogonal to the main scan direction in one or two of three colors. Simultaneously, in the other two colors or in a remaining one color, every second picture cell group consisting of two adjacent picture cells of the same main scanning line is shifted in the sub scan direction. The amount of staggering or shifting corresponds to a half length of the picture cells in the sub scan direction.
