Abstract

A device including: a photoreceptor; an LED printbar; and a computer processor for: determining how long LEDs on the printbar are energized while the device is operated to generate an image output; determining that a first plurality of LEDs has been energized less than a second plurality of LEDs; energizing the first plurality of LEDs for a correction time period as the LEDs are aligned with an inter-document zone (IDZ); and de-energizing the second plurality of LEDs during the time period. Energizing the second plurality of LEDs is unrelated to energizing the LEDs for purposes of evaluating an image. The time period is concurrent with operation of the device to generate an image output.
