Appeal No. 1998-0671 Application 08/285,328 This higher resolution image cannot be printed by the printer and, so, is rescanned to the original resolution of the image. The rescanned image will include a number of gray level pixels, as shown in figure 5. Prior to printing, the pixel values are subjected to a quantizing process where gray level pixel values are reduced to binary values, preferably through an error diffusion process which operates only on gray pixels. - 5 -Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
