Abstract
A method for forming an image on media is provided which includes controlling an imaging head to emit radiation beams to form the image while scanning over the media along a scan direction. The image can include a feature that has an edge portion that extends in a direction that is skewed by a skew angle with respect to the scan direction. Each radiation beam can be controllable to vary a size of a pixel formed on the media by the radiation beam. Each pixel has a first size along a first direction and a second size along a second direction that intersects the first direction. In one embodiment, the second size is different than the first size and is determined based at least on the skew angle and the first size.
