TITLE

Resolution of Achromatic Prints as a Predictor of Qualimetric Decision

ABSTRACT

In this paper, a methodology for quantitative assessment of the quality of achromatic raster images on paper has been developed. Analysis of the relationship of subjective and objective quality indicators in the evaluation of printed images has been carried out. We found an analytical form of the dependence of perceived quality on the resolution of black-and-white raster images without compression printed on white paper by an inkjet method. Differential thresholds for two resolution ranges are defined. Directions for further research are indicated.
