Method for Expressing Color
Paint is mixed on a pallet to create various colors. This cannot be done inside a printer or on a display,
therefore, color is expressed with a group of color dots.
On the display, various colors are expressed by the red, green, and blue dots.
The colors of toner cannot be saturated by the printer. Therefore, a larger amount of dots are used in
the printer, and colors are expressed in various combinations by adding black to cyan, yellow, and
magenta. In addition, the smaller the dots are, colors can be printed in a higher resolution.
