1. A method for curing a material, comprising the steps of(a) providing a substrate having a curable material deposited thereon in an uncured state;

  • (b) emitting an amount of light from a first light source having one or more light source operational parameters, which impinges on at least a portion of the deposited curable material for initiating curing of the curable material;

    (c) monitoring a curing characteristic of the curable material as the portion of the curable material transitions from the uncured state to a cured state; and

    (d) varying at least one of the one or more light source operational parameters based on the monitored curing characteristic as the portion of the curable material cures.
