PRINTING SYSTEM, METHOD FOR PROCESSING IMAGE DATA AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM HAVING STORED THEREON PROGRAM FOR ALLOWING COMPUTER TO PERFORM IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD

摘要

A printing system includes an inkjet printing apparatus including inkjet heads to print in a single pass system. An image processing apparatus is configured to generate output image data representing image to be printed by the inkjet printing apparatus. The image processing apparatus includes an output image generating device configured to convert printing data to the output image data which represent the image with a color depending on color reproduction characteristic of ink. The output image generating device includes a rasterizer and a head common color convertor configured to execute common color conversion for the inkjet heads using one ICC profile common to the inkjet heads. An adjuster is configured to reduce variations of color reproduction characteristics with respect to the inkjet heads using calibration information which are respectively prepared for the inkjet heads depending on each color reproduction characteristic with respect to the inkjet heads.
