Abstract

An apparatus for printing images from digital image data onto a light sensitive medium disposed at an image plane which comprises a control logic processor capable of controlling the operation of the apparatus for printing based on the digital image data. An image forming assembly directs an exposure beam to the light sensitive medium disposed at the image plane. The image forming assembly (10) comprises a light source, a first lens assembly (41), a beamsplitter (50), a spatial light modulator (52), a temperature profile control apparatus (51) and a second lens assembly (132).
