Abstract: The invention relates to a device for digitally generating images on photosensitive material comprising a light source, a liquid crystal display (LCD) unit and imaging optics. According to the invention, the LCD unit and the imaging optics are mounted in the same lens tube.

Abstract: An improved ink jet recording element is disclosed comprising a subbed polyester support, and an ink receiver layer containing a cationic compound, characterized in that between said support and said ink receiver layer there is an additional adhesion promoting layer present comprising a binder and a cationically modified silica.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for finding the stored device independent coordinate triplet (CIEL*a*b*triplet) which is closest to the device-independent target color triplet and then looking up the coordinates in device-dependent ABC space which correspond to this best fit among the color patches. A set of new points is defined in ABC space about the best fit point. The raster for the selection of these points in ABC space is independent of the stored color patch points. The magnitude of the increments away from the best fit color patch can therefore be made as small or large as desired. Using this new set of points about the best fit color match, each point of this set is converted back into CIEL*a*b* space points by interpolation and each of these points is compared with the target color in CIEL*a*b* space and the point determined with the smallest difference thereto, .DELTA.E.
