Abstract

Methods and systems for printing an image on a receiver medium are provided. In accordance with the method, digital image data representing an image to be printed is received and, a print engine is used to print an image on the receiver medium based upon the digital image data and initial printing settings. A press sheet image is captured of the image printed on the receiver medium and, the press sheet image is automatically compared to the digital image data to detect differences. Selected types of differences can be identified or can be addressed by adapting the press sheet image or adjusting digital image data prior to comparison.
