The amount of moire in halftone printed images is reduced using unique moire intensity functions and moire vectors in a halftoner. In various embodiments, moire phase angle zones are determined over the full field of an image and high addressability units in the full-field moire phase angle zones of the image are adjusted, including in an iterative manner, until they significantly reduce the moire. A useful relationship between halftoner memory locations and moire phase angle zones in a full field image is determined. The moire that occurs in a halftone image is quantified and moire compensation values obtained are then used to generate an inverse moire amount which is used to compensate for the moire.
