ABSTRACT:
A system for printing an image onto a substrate includes a print controller that determines a difference in intended color intensity between a first pixel and a second pixel; adjusts the intended color intensity of the first pixel based on the determined difference; and deposits a colorant onto the substrate at the first pixel at the adjusted intended intensity, so as to enhance the appearance of the image on the substrate. The current system has particular utility in enhancing the appearance of fine images such as one pixel wide, vertical and diagonal lines in a printing system which utilizes printhead heating elements that are larger in the vertical direction than in the horizontal direction.
