Zusammenfassung:A system and method for detecting and correcting color misregistration errors in a color image forming device. Spectrophotometric analysis is performed on special color registration patches to transform color registration errors into a color signal. The color registration patch is designed so the color shift detected by the spectrophotometer allows prediction of the amount of color misregistration.
