The reproduction of colors for the CIE standard observer is definitely determined if display devices with three color channels like a CRT or a TFT display are used. In contrast, multiprimary displays provide several possibilities to reproduce colors for the CIE standard observer. Due
to the higher number of variables the degrees of freedom can be used to optimize the color difference between color stimuli of the reproduction and the original for several different observers. The achievement of small reproduction errors for several observers is one of the major advantages,
a multiprimary display offers in addition to an essential the enlargement of the color gamut.In this paper a stochastic algorithm is described to optimize the control of a 6-channel multiprimary display. The aim is to reproduce multispectral input data for any human observer at smallest
possible color differences. The origin of the algorithm is the additive mixture of 6 narrow band spectral primaries, which are described by measured spectral power distributions of a laboratory model. The quality of the color reproduction is defined as the maximum color difference between
the reference and reproduction for 24 different human observers characterized by their spectral color matching functions. The maximum color difference of the observers calculated in CIE Δ
