Tektronix 4634 MX dry-process silver continuous printer
A method of recording continuous gray-tone images on dry-process silver paper from raster-scan video signals is described. The Tektronix 4634 image-forming module uses a fiber-optic faceplate cathode-ray tube to couple the light output onto the recording paper. The latent image is heat developed and presented in sheet form. An initial comparison between dry silver paper and conventional film for video-generated computed tomography and nuclear medicine examinations, shows little apparent difference in image quality. Considerable cost savings are possible when using dry silver paper. Additional cost savings are possible if multiple images can be recorded on each dry silver sheet.
