Abstract
Method for reducing banding effects in images, in particular gloss banding effects, by means of a scanning printing module, a scanning drying resp. hardening unit and a medium feeder, wherein the scanning printing module provides printed lines with a line width B, whose ends forming the line margin define a printing texture, and a scanning drying resp. hardening unit essentially completely dried resp. hardened lines with a line width H are provided, whose ends forming the line margin define a wet/dry texture, wherein a printed line of a printing scan and a hardened line of a hardening scan are formed overlapping yet without running congruently.

Method for reducing banding effects in images, in particular gloss banding effects, by means of a printer that works with a scanning printing module (101), a scanning drying resp. hardening unit (109) and a medium feeder, wherein the scanning printing module (101) provides printed lines (106) with a line width B, whose ends forming the line margin define a printing texture (107), and a scanning drying resp. hardening unit (109) essentially completely dried resp. hardened lines (115) with a line width H are provided, whose ends forming the line margin define a wet/dry texture (117), characterized in that the printed line (105) of a printing scan and the hardened line (115) of a hardening scan are formed overlapping yet without running congruently.
