Color gamut
A color gamut is a range of colors. The gamut that the human eye can see is much larger than can be produced in a photograph. The photograph gamut is much larger than that of an RGB monitor. The RGB monitor gamut is larger than the CMYK gamut of a Xerox DocuColor system press. The CMYK gamut of offset printing is significantly less than that of a Xerox DocuColor system. The figure below compares the color gamuts of a color printer with the digital color press.
