Abstract

In some examples, print quality diagnosis may include aligning corresponding characters between a scanned image of a printed physical medium aligned to a master image associated with generation of the printed physical medium to generate a common mask. Print quality diagnosis may further include determining, for each character of the scanned image, an average value associated with pixels within the common mask, and determining, for each corresponding character of the master image, the average value associated with pixels within the common mask. Further, print quality diagnosis may include determining, for each character of the common mask, a metric between the average values associated with the corresponding characters in the scanned and master images.
