A processing apparatus is provided. The processing apparatus includes a controller to process information as part of a Halftone Area Neugebauer Separation printing process to use at least one opaque ink as a process colorant in combination with at least one further process colorant.

Scanner, method or computer program product, arranged to sense media color information, store predetermined color values of preselected non-printed media and storing corresponding color profiles adapted for the respective preselected media, and process sensed color values, compare a sensed color value with the predetermined color values, and select one of said color profiles based on the comparison.
摘要:
A color-separation LUT and/or algorithm method and apparatus preferably convert input device-color data to output device-colorants, for many color-presentation types—automatically and for arbitrary colorant-set. In one major aspect of the invention, a device-hue ring is defined along six straight edges of a cubical device-hue space (without segments ending at white and black). Preferably coordinates defined along the six segments parametrize the procedure and equipment, i. e. establish colorant indexing by those coordinates (and preferably device-hue). In a second major aspect, plural color transformations—having respective favorable and adverse characteristics—serve different portions of input color space; their outputs merge to combine favorable properties of the transforms. In a third, cusps of the colorant hue planes populate the output side of the hue ring. In a fourth, a colorant sampling technique (faster by several orders of magnitude than exhaustive sampling) canvasses the output space.

摘要:
In one example, a print job is received. The print job includes a first plot to be printed on a first side of a media, and a second plot to be printed on a second side of the media in registration with the first plot. The first plot and a fiducial mark are caused to print on the first side, the fiducial mark being a known distance from the first plot and including an identifier for the second plot. In response to detecting the identifier via a sensor and measuring a distance to the fiducial mark to discern a reference for printing the second plot, the second plot is caused to print on the second side in registration with the first plot.

A source image is converted to a printable image that is constrained to a bi-directional gamut achievable by both a forward-first print mode and a reverse-first print mode. While the printable image is printed, a print system alternates between forward and reverse passes. The print system uses a forward-first color map during the forward passes and a different reverse-first color map during the reverse passes.

摘要:
The disclosure describes methods for color printing, performing a color separation process and performing a halftoning process. Furthermore, the disclosure describes the color separation process determining one or more Neugebauer Primaries, tessellating the Neugebauer Primaries, and generating one or more Neugebauer Primary area coverage vectors, whose area coverages are linear with respect to a device-independent color space. The disclosure further describes that the color separation process communicates with the halftoning process using one or more Neugebauer Primary area coverage vectors.
