Abstract

We introduce a new banding analysis system which contains a banding measurement tool and a spatial-visualization tool. The banding measurement tool is based on image analysis to measure color banding exhibited by color laser printers. The tool analyzes a specially designed test page and provides the principal banding frequency components from both the primary and secondary colorant planes. On the other hand, the spatial-visualization tool is intended to help the users better understand from a qualitative perspective the appearance of the color banding on their printed test pages. The overall banding analysis system is very useful for engineers in printer industry to investigate banding in color laser printers throughout all stages of the printer development life cycle.
