EXTENDED GAMUT COLORANT FOR PRINT JOB BASED ON USER PREFERENCES

摘要

Methods, devices, and systems automatically generate electronic images of the printed appearance of a multi-color image using first print processing to generate a first sample image, and using second print processing to generate a second sample image. Pixels in the first sample image and the second sample image are compared to a color standard to generate a first error value and a second error value. The first error value is compared to the second error value for each pixel to produce an error value reduction associated with the second print processing for each pixel of the multi-color image. The error value reduction for each pixel of the multi-color image is compared to a threshold to identify benefited pixels. The benefited pixels can be displayed on a contrasting background, and/or the electronic image can be automatically printed using the second print processing if the benefited pixels exceed a minimum value.
