ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to techniques for compensating for imaging aberrations that result from repeated passes by an imaging laser array. The techniques provide for printing overlapping swaths and providing masking for at least one printing pass. The masks generally expand and contract the breadth of the printing swath.
