Abstract
A method for reducing visible artifacts includes operating recording channels to form image pixel arrangements comprising a plurality of image pixel columns. Each column extends along a first direction and each image pixel has a size L in a second direction. The recording channels form a first image pixel arrangement and the arrangement includes a first set of M image pixel columns. Image pixels in the first set of M image pixel columns are formed in accordance with first image data. Second image data is modified to include the first image data. Second image pixel arrangement are formed and include a second set of M image pixel columns. A distance between the first set of M image pixel columns and the second set of M image pixel columns is adjusted such that the first set of M image pixel columns is overlapped by the second set of M image pixel columns.
