US Patent 7792442 Electronic photograph printer

A electronic photograph printer includes a density-measurement section and a density controller section. The density-measurement section includes a density sensor 31 for measuring densities of images printed on a web by electronic-photograph-printing units. The density controller section adjusts densities of images which are about to be printed on the web by the electronic-photograph-printing units based on measurement data obtained by using the density sensor 31 associated with the densities of the image on the web. This configuration enables accurate and stable print-density control at a low cost.
