A hydrophilic layer is present on the outer aluminum oxide layer and contains a phosphorus-containing compound represented by Formula (I) at a coverage of 50-300 mg/m. A hydrophilic polymer can also be present at a lower coverage than that of the phosphorus-containing compound. These precursors have an on-press developable, negative¬ working infrared radiation-sensitive imageable layer having at least a free radically polymerizable component; an initiator composition that provides free radicals upon exposure to imaging infrared radiation; an infrared radiation absorber having an anionic chromophore; and optionally a polymeric binder that is different from all other components. Such precursors can be imaged and on-press developed to provide lithographic printing plates, and they can be readily manufactured using a particular sequence of steps including multiple anodization steps.

A method for correcting in-track position errors in a digital printing system includes determining a non-linear in-track position correction function responsive to measured in-track position errors, wherein the in-track position corrections are quantized to integer in-track position corrections. A representation of the in-track position correction function is stored in a digital memory, wherein the representation of the in-track position correction function includes the cross-track positions and transition direction of transitions in the in-track position correction function. Digital image data for a digital image to be printed is received, and corrected image lines are determined by resampling the digital image data responsive to the stored representation of the in-track position correction function. The corrected image lines are modified to provide anti-aliasing pixels at cross-track positions adjacent to transitions in the in-track position correction function.

A method for reducing artifacts in an electrophotographic printing system includes receiving a print job including image data for a set of pages. The electrophotographic printing system is used to print a block of pages from the print job to provide corresponding printed pages. Image data for the block of pages is analyzed to determine a cross-track image profile for each page in the block of pages. Image data for a compensation image and a number of compensation images are determined, wherein the compensation image has a cross-track image profile which has an inverted shape relative to an average of the cross-track image profiles for the block of pages. The printing of the compensation images reduces image burn-in artifacts which result from the printing of the block of pages.
