Claim One:
1. A method for compensation of banding in a marking platform, comprising: a) obtaining banding image data for a banding test pattern from a test pattern image sensor, wherein the banding test pattern is indicative of banding characteristics of a marking platform, wherein each of at least two select marking modules in the marking platform are provisioned with at least one once around sensor adapted to provide a 1× signal indicative of a fundamental frequency for banding characteristics associated with the corresponding select marking module, wherein the banding test pattern is marked on an image receiving member by the marking platform over at least multiple intervals of a lowest fundamental frequency among the at least two select marking modules; b) obtaining 1× signals from each once around sensor in relation to the marking of the banding test pattern on the image receiving member; and c) processing the banding image data in relation to the 1× signals to form a banding profile for each of the at least two select marking modules.
