Abstract

A method is disclosed. The method includes receiving one or more images of bitmap data applied to a print medium as print medium image data, register the print medium image data to the bitmap data, detecting one or more candidate defects based on whether a difference between the print medium image data at a location and the bitmap data at the location exceeds a predetermined threshold, detecting one or more defects among the candidate defects and transmitting information about the one or more candidate defects classified as defects.
