The invention provides a color processing method that is capable of improving the color reproduction accuracy by calculating an adequate amount of black component (referred to as K) with consideration of the coverage restriction when a four-color signal including the black component is generated from a color signal of a input color space. By a YMCK modeling unit, adjustment K calculation unit, restriction K calculation unit and optimal K modeling unit, modeling is performed between the representative color signal and the corresponding optimal K by use of plural color signals that belong to the partial color space, namely the color gamut that is reproducible with three colors and by use of plural color signals that belong to the area on the curved plane that is reproducible with four colors including the black component as the representative color signal. An optimal K determining unit predicts an optimal K corresponding to the input color signal in the input color space based on the model. Furthermore, a YMCK color signal calculation unit predicts three colors except the black component from the input color signal and the predicted optimal K. As described hereinabove, a four-color signal including K is generated.

In an image processing apparatus, a first conversion unit converts, on the basis of an input device profile, input data into first device-independent data expressed by a color space that is independent of an apparatus. A storage unit stores plural conversion profiles for converting using a color appearance model in the color space that is independent of the apparatus in correspondence with plural device characteristics that are dependent on apparatuses. A selection unit selects a conversion profile corresponding to characteristics of the input device, characteristics of an output device, observation conditions of the input data and the output data. A second conversion unit converts, on basis of the selected conversion profile, the first device-independent data into second device-independent data. A third conversion unit converts the second device-independent data into the output data on the basis of an output device profile.

Receiving an object color signal and an input black colorant quantity associated with the object color signal, an equivalent output black colorant quantity calculating section calculates an equivalent output black colorant quantity in an output color space equivalent to the input black colorant quantity from the input black colorant quantity. An output color signal determining section calculates an output color signal from the object color signal and the equivalent input black colorant quantity, and determines whether or not the coverage restriction is satisfied. When the coverage restriction is not satisfied, an optimum black colorant quantity is calculated by adjusting the input black colorant quantity, and an optimum color signal satisfying the coverage restriction is calculated to generate an output color signal with the optimum black colorant quantity in the restriction black colorant quantity calculating section and subsequent processings.

An LUT1 preparation section 1 and an LUT2 preparation section 2 prepare an LUT1 and an LUT2 for producing linear output from first raw data or second raw data. Using the LUT1 and LUT2, an LUT1 conversion section 3 and an LUT2 inverse conversion section 4 convert CMYK of the first raw data and C′M′Y′K′ of the second raw data into four color values adjusted, and an L matching LUT preparation section 5 prepares an L matching LUT so that the K value of the four color values adjusted becomes equal. A K preservation 4DLUT preparation section 6 prepares a K preservation 4DLUT from the four color values adjusted, the L matching LUT, and the Lab value of the first and second raw data. A 4DLUT reset section 7 resets some of data in the prepared K preservation 4DLUT, whereby partial calorimetric match is intended.
