Which Colors are Hardest to Print Accurately?
When printing, the worst thing that can happen is that the true colors don’t come through. If the subject is a fruit basket, you want the image to look rich, juicy and lifelike. Not washed out. The apples should be red, bananas should be yellow, grapes should be green and the oranges should be just that – orange. The brighter the color, the harder it is to get an accurate print. There are a few steps you can take within the process to ensure a clear color.
The Ink
Choose a quality source for ink, like Canon printer ink. The color is rich and doesn’t run. No matter what paper source or equipment you use, you get a good image every time.
RGB Vs. CMYK
When combined RGB (red, blue, green) creates white. It also works better for scanners, digital cameras and computer monitor settings. RGB has larger gamut and more saturation for richer color. CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, and key) on the other hand, creates black when combined. It’s more efficient for commercial printing. RGB prints bright vibrant colors best on a small scale such as stickers, while CMYK may wash them out. Neons, oranges and some blues won’t print true to color in CMYK, no matter how many ways you try to adjust the settings.
Software
Take the time to learn the color settings in the software you’re using. They usually tell you how to set the color mode, choose the file formats, and adjust according to project. Read the directions, adjust the settings and do some test runs before you start printing projects. Canon ink cartridges do an automatic test print when you insert the cartridge into the printer to ensure quality images, so don’t be afraid to do small test prints until you get the result you want.
Color Guide
Most software programs have some kind of color guide to help you. Pantone, the leading authority on color, usually offers a Pantone Process Color Guide that walks you through the process. It also offers a wide range of colors for you to use without having to mix them yourself.
What’s Your Project?
Think about what type of project you’re doing. Animation, digital pictures, abstract art, fall color schemes, or spring color stories; all require different ranges of colors. Dark animation or fall color schemes may require more washed out dark color that can be achieved with CMYK settings. But spring color stories with a touch of bright fresh neons may require RGB settings for clarity.
No matter what result you’re trying to achieve it’s up to you to acquire the knowledge to bring your project to completion. Images can be as true to life as you want, and memories can be preserved true to the moment.
