Abstract

Color calibration has as its aim consistent color and is constrained by several factors, including both efficiency and contouring. In this paper, we describe a method of color calibration based on the measurement of halftone “quiet levels” and the subsequent selection of 256 halftone levels for CMYK that provide a linear response in dE from paper. The results of this method are contrasted with a more traditional eight bit gray balanced approach to calibration.
