Method and apparatus for optimized image processing

Abstract From the Canadian patent

An image processing system for digital printing for improving throughput and efficiency of the transfer of image data to imaging devices such as lasers, while allowing, for dynamic and continuous adjustment of image size and registration (i.e. alignment) on recording media. A buffer memory structure is configured to receive data from raw, image files. Specific portions of data are copied from the raw image files into a buffer, memory structure and, for compilation of the final image into an image , buffer. Image, overlap is resolved by copying data into the image buffer according to a defined, hierarchy. Using a phase locked loop image size and registration are adjusted to, optimize the …
