Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention relate to the automatic measuring of such qualities of a printed sheet as reflectance excluding specular reflectance, reflectance including specular reflectance, e.g. gloss, transmittance, half-tone coverage, and the like.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention concern automatic color separation with a white ink for colored and/or transparent substrate, automatic color separation with a silver ink for a natural rendering, automatic color separation with a varnish which has a gloss scale different from that of the printed sample for all shades of gloss that are possible between high glossy to high matte for a false third rendering, automatic color variation with variable thickness under the inks, and variable gamut mapping for a low contrast space.
Abstract:
In a color printing environment, functions for printing color management are dissociated. An abstraction layer is also provided to facilitate setting and evaluation of all factors relating to color print and prediction.

Abstract:
Color prediction for color printing is performed in response to loading media into a printer and initiation of a calibration sequence, using one or more sensors to measure physical properties of the media. Based at least upon the measured physical properties, an optimal preset is identified in a database and the optimal preset is loaded into the printer as a starting calibration. A difference from values in the optimal preset loaded into the printer and those of the measured physical properties is determined and the printer prints a chart. The sensors measure the chart and the measurements of the chart are used to fine tune the optimal preset. The fine tuned preset is then saved as a new media profile.
