  • Method and apparatus to reduce cross-interference in reproduction of scanned halftone images
    Patent number: 6411745
    Abstract: A method and apparatus of reproducing an image in which an original image is scanned to produce a digital representation of the original image as a plurality of original pixels regularly located within the original image and each having a grey level value. Replacement pixels randomly located within boundaries of the original image are generated. The grey level values of the original pixels are interpolated and an interpolated grey level value is assigned to each of the replacement pixels. A reproduction of the original image is generated using only the replacement pixels and their assigned interpolated grey level values.
