2. CMYK color model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CMYK_color_model

   The CMYK color model (also known as process color, or four color) is a subtractive color model, based on the CMY color model, used in color printing, and is also used to describe the printing process itself. The abbreviation CMYK refers to the four ink plates used: c yan, m agenta, y ellow, and k ey (black).

3. Color space - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_space

   Colors can be created in printing with color spaces based on the CMYK color model, using the subtractive primary colors of pigment (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black). To create a three-dimensional representation of a given color space, we can assign the amount of magenta color to the representation's X axis , the amount of cyan to its Y axis ...

4. List of color spaces and their uses - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_color_spaces_and...

   CMYK is used in the printing process, because it describes what kinds of inks are needed to be applied so the light reflected from the substrate and through the inks produces a given color. One starts with a white substrate (canvas, page, etc.), and uses ink to subtract color from white to create an image.

5. CcMmYK color model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CcMmYK_color_model

   CcMmYK color model. An image printed with a CcMmYKk ink set, on both paper and canvas stock. The ink cartridges used are also shown. CcMmYK, sometimes referred to as CMYKLcLm or CMYKcm, is a six-color printing process used in some inkjet printers optimized for photo printing. [ 1] It complements the more common four color CMYK process, which ...

6. Color calibration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_calibration

   The ICC profile for a printer is created by comparing a test print result using a photometer with the original reference file. The test chart contains known CMYK colors, whose offsets to their actual L*a*b* colors scanned by the photometer result in an ICC profile. Another possibility to ICC profile a printer is to use a calibrated scanner as ...

7. Spot color - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spot_color

   The widespread offset-printing process is composed of the four spot colors cyan, magenta, yellow, and key commonly referred to as CMYK. More advanced processes involve the use of six spot colors ( hexachromatic process ), which add orange and green to the process (termed CMYKOG ).

8. Color management - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_management

   Color management is the process of ensuring consistent and accurate colors across various devices, such as monitors, printers, and cameras. It involves the use of color profiles, which are standardized descriptions of how colors should be displayed or reproduced. Color management is necessary because different devices have different color ...

9. Color mixing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_mixing

   For practical additive color models, an equal superposition of all primaries results in neutral (gray or white). In the RGB model, an equal mixture of red and green is yellow, an equal mixture of green and blue is cyan and an equal mixture of blue and red is magenta. [ 1]: 4.2 Yellow, cyan and magenta are the secondary colors of the RGB model.
