Abstract:
A method, non-transitory computer readable medium and apparatus for applying an image shear to correct a digital image-paper registration error are disclosed. For example, the method, performed by a processor of a printing device, includes detecting an amount of skew of a paper traveling through a registration system of a printing device, determining that the amount of skew is greater than a predefined threshold, applying an image shear to a digital image that will be printed on the paper, and controlling a plurality of printheads of the printing device to print the digital image on the paper with the image shear that is applied.

Claim (Index 19):
A method for correcting an image-paper registration error, comprising:\n detecting, by a processor, an amount of skew of a paper traveling through a registration system of a printing device; determining, by the processor, that the amount of skew is greater than a predefined threshold; applying, by the processor, a cross-process direction image shear to a digital image that will be printed on the paper before a missing jet correction is applied to the digital image, wherein the cross-process direction image shear shifts a first number of vertical scanlines in a cross-process direction, wherein the number of vertical scanlines is based on the amount of skew; applying, by the processor, the missing jet process to the digital image after the cross-process image shear is applied; applying, by the processor, a process direction shear to a second number of horizontal scanlines in a process direction that include the first number of vertical scanlines in the cross-process direction, wherein the second number of horizontal scanlines is based on a function of the amount of skew; and controlling, by the processor, a plurality of printheads of the printing device to print the digital image on the paper with the cross-process direction image shear, the missing jet process, and the process direction image shear that is applied.
