Abstract

The printer dot is the smallest unit of a digital image. The shape, characteristic, and interaction of each dot play an essential role in the perception of image quality. This paper details a practical closed loop process for measuring the imperfect dot. The discussion will cover a minimum set of measurable attributes, the procedure to obtain data, show an example of results and correlate outcome to visual assessment.
