        <p>
          <italic>We have developed a single-pass inkjet digital press AccurioJet KM-1, which can achieve off-set like high image quality with high productivity, 3,000 sheets per hour.</italic>
          
          <italic>To success in the commercial printing field, high image quality and high consistency are required to be
 achieved.</italic>
          
          <italic>For achieving high image quality, undesirable image defect such as banding should be improved. Therefore we have classified image banding into two, narrow banding (streak) and wide banding.</italic>
          
          <italic>To solve the narrow banding issue, we developed a unique halftoning and
 a nozzle compensation techniques by means of image simulation process. We also improved the wide banding issue by adjusting the dot size and the dot density.</italic>
          
          <italic>As for the high consistency, we developed a streak F detection system, which scans images on every sheet, checks the existence
 of streaks, and feeds the results back to the image compensation systems.</italic>
