1. A method of selecting an intensity threshold for image halftoning comprising the steps of: (a) selecting a first intensity threshold if an error of at least one a current pixel and a neighboring pixel exceeds a first error threshold; (b) selecting a second intensity threshold if an error of a pixel remotely neighboring said current pixel exceeds a second error threshold and said first intensity threshold is not selected; and (c) selecting a third intensity threshold if at least one of said first and said second intensity thresholds is not selected.
