Abstract (en)
Method of generating a sharpened image in a thermal printer having an internal thermal model module that converts input values into power values for each element of a thermal head and for each printing cycle. Input values to be fed into the internal thermal model are obtained by mathematically simulating the behaviour of the printer.
