Colour printing is the reproduction of an image or text in colour (as opposed to simpler black and white or monochrome printing). It may also commonly be called four-colour process printing when only the colors cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (also known as CMYK ) are used. Another emerging method of colour printing is six-color process printing (for example, Pantone 's Hexachrome system) which adds orange and green to the traditional CMYK for a larger and more vibrant gamut , or color range.
Colour printing involves a series of steps, or transformations, in order to generate a quality color reproduction. |
