Abstract
The invention relates to a method for generating a print of a digital image comprising image pixels by a printer comprising a print head and radiation means for curing recording material by irradiation, the recording material to be ejected by the print head on a substrate, wherein the print may have palpable differences between a height of various pixels of the print, the method comprising the steps of providing the digital image comprising an elevation channel for indicating an elevation of each image pixel of the digital image, deriving from the elevation channel of the digital image pixels in the digital image which may be expected to receive such a low amount of radiation that recording material is insufficiently cured, for each derived image pixel adapting at least one elevation channel value of the derived image pixel or image pixels adjacent to the derived image pixel by such an amount that the recording material is expected to be sufficiently cured, and printing the digital image with the adapted elevation channel values. The invention also relates to a computer product and a printer system for applying the method.
