Abstract

An electro-optic imager, used for exposing photosensitive media, wherein a modulator, e.g. an array of PLZT light valves, is used to modulate one or more light beams. Temperature control is applied to the modulator to reduce or eliminate variations in response characteristics which would otherwise change the color balance of the final print from the desired color balance.
