A New Technique for Production High Fidelity Color Separations

In result of the continuous efforts to improve the quality of printed full color images, new techniques have emerged. Expanded-gamut color printing otherwise know as HiFi (High Fidelity) Color is a term that, for many people, characterizes the future of the printing industry. Images reproduced with HiFi color techniques offer superb color gamut. HiFi color methods were first received with great enthusiasm, but people engaged in research and experiments have also viewed them with criticism because of the problems with their practical applications. In this paper, HiFi color is examined as a whole, and a new technique for producing HiFi color separations is presented. The concept of this technique is to utilize traditional separation techniques in order to produce HiFi color separations according to the MaxCYM method.
