Abstract

An excellent image quality full color hardcopy system with easy maintainability has been developed. The system is characterized by a new type of color phtotothermographic material and also by light-emitting diodes (LED) as the light source for image exposure. The output images have good tonal and color renditions as well as an extreme low level of granularity, mainly owing to the photothermographic material â€¢ based on silver halide photo-sensor. As the chemistry and the hardware outline of the system have been reported elsewhere, the present paper will describe some features of its image exposure sub-system.
