1. A method for correcting for edge defects caused by print characteristics of a print engine, comprising: printing a set of actual color patches corresponding to a desired set of colors; defining an edge region and a uniform area region in each of the patches; for each color patch in the set of actual color patches: determining a difference between color in the edge region of the patch and color in the uniform area region of the patch; and generating an edge response to adjust color output of the print engine in the edge region to substantially match color output in the uniform area region.
