Abstract
A method and apparatus to maintain constant tone reproduction on a printed output over time. This is accomplished by performing template matching on a halftoned binary image prior to sending the binary image to a Raster Output Scanner (ROS). The template matching operation selectively replaces bit patterns in the binary image with template bit patterns, based on a detected xerographic density.
