Filtering image information to generate a dithered image includes receiving input image information corresponding to an image generated using a first array comprising a first number of smaller pixels. Intermediate image information is generated from the input image information. The intermediate image information is generated to produce the image using a second array comprising a second number of larger pixels, where the second number less than the first number. A frequency response associated with the image produced using the second array exhibits effects. The intermediate image information is repeatedly filtered to generate updated image information from the intermediate image information and to compensate for the effects. Sub-image information is generated from the updated image information, the sub-image information corresponding to a dithered image.
