CMYK imaging

CMYK imaging is a color printing process that uses four ink colors: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (Black). These inks are layered in tiny dots to create a wide range of colors. Cyan, magenta, and yellow are primary inks that combine with varying intensities to produce different hues. Black ink enhances depth and detail, improving contrast and reducing ink usage. By precisely controlling the application of these four colors, printers can produce high-quality, vibrant images that resemble the original artwork or photo, making CMYK a standard method for commercial printing.
