We present an analysis and model for evaluation of color shifts in halftone printing caused by inter-separation misregistration for periodic clustered dot halftones. Using a lattice framework, we present intuitive analysis that demonstrates conditions under which the average color is asymptotically invariant under inter-separation misregistration. Combining the framework with an analytic repres...

The color print cartridges (cyan, magenta, yellow) for the DeskJet 1200C represent a significant advance in HP thermal inkjet printing technology. The major contributors to the improved performance, print quality attributes, and throughput are the ink and the architecture. Both the ink and the architecture were optimized to deliver significant improvements in print quality, color gamut, through...

Color gamuts of acrylic paints generated by paint mixing and varnishing is introduced. A colorant data including unit k, unit s, and Saunderson coefficients, K1 and K2, are optimized. The simulation result of paint gamut rendering contradicts a belief of color mixing theory that yellow, blue, and red primaries produces any green. In addition, a statistic gloss model shows that varnishing makes ...

Color laser printers have fast printing speed and high resolution, and forgeries using color laser printers can cause significant harm to society. A source printer identification technique can be employed as a countermeasure to those forgeries. This paper presents a color laser printer identification method based on cascaded learning of deep neural networks. The refiner network is trained by ad...

In the operation of a printing press, color control depends very much on the operator's skill and experience. However, with the development of the color control system by color scale, the conventional operator's skill is being replaced by numerical evaluation of color quality, and productivity is greatly enhanced. Recently, it has been attempted to measure the whole print image and develop a co...

Three sulfatoethylsulfone reactive dyes have been synthesized and were applied to mill desized, bleached and mercerized cotton fabric. Effect of different dyeing parameters i.e. salt concentration, dyeing time, dyeing temperature and pH of dye solution were being optimized by exhaust dyeing method. The fixation (%F) of the synthesized dye molecules with the cotton fabrics was also studied. Cott...

Grayscale halftoning converts a continuous-tone image (e.g., 8 bits per pixel) to a lower resolution (e.g., 1 bit per pixel) for printing or display. Grayscale halftoning by error diffusion uses feedback to shape the quantization noise into high frequencies where the human visual system (HVS) is least sensitive. In color halftoning, the application of grayscale error-diffusion methods to the in...

The paper presents novel techniques based on the Coloroid color system which hitherto has not been applied to gamut mapping. The introduced methods described are hue preserving and use three gravity centers in a huedependent way. Two of the gravity centers are shifted toward the direction of ‘negative saturation’, and can be used for regions of bright and dark colors, while a third gravity cent...

Fruit nursery paper is a protective technical paper that is used in agriculture to improve the percentage of the fruit that meets quality standards and the fruit’s exterior qualities, such as the smooth surface finish and fruit color. In this work, a more efficient and environmentally friendly method, i.e., the printing method, was proposed in order to minimize environmental pollution, reduce t...

Experiments have shown that the quality of printed images depends on the capacity of the printing system to accurately reproduce details. We propose to improve the quality by compensating for the Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) of the printing system. The MTF of the printing system is measured using a modified version of the method proposed by Jang and Allebach [1]. Then the MTF is adaptivel...
