Appendix

The colors of the RGB color model can be mixed to produce the cyan, magenta, and yellow of the CMY color model and vice versa. Two colors of one model are mixed to produce the color of the other model (mixing blue and green produces cyan, for example). The remaining color is the complement of the color pro- duced (red in this example). Complementary colors are: red and cyan, green and magenta, blue and yellow.

The printer produces full-color output using four toner colors: cyan, magenta,

yellow, and black. These four colors make up the CMYK color model.

Note

 

Mixing CMY in equal proportions should hypothetically produce pure black, but imperfections in the ink cause an equal measure of these colors to produce a muddy or dark brown. Black toner is added to the color model in order to make it possible to produce pure black.
