Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1958774A2] In a process to regulate a technical printing process e.g. crop mark, colour registration, colour density regulation point registration, or colour location regulation, a sensor measures a current value reproduced on the print medium. The value registered is compared with a pre-printed and measured target value. The difference between the two signals is used as a correction value signal for the print process. In the correction process, the actual value and the target value correction is first determined at reduced resolution and the correction then calculated by correlation. In the vicinity of the maximum, the correlated sub-pixel approximation is then effected by interpolation.
