image reproduction process
Gamut
The gamut (or range of colours) that the human eye can see is much larger than the range
of colours that can be reproduced in a photograph, on a television or computer display, or
in print. Also, every device capable of reproducing colour has a different gamut. The
gamut of an RGB computer display is larger than the CMYK gamut of a DocuColor 2000
Series system, which in turn is larger than the CMYK gamut of an offset press.
The primary reason the gamut of a DocuColor 2045 or 2060 is broader than the CMYK
gamut of an offset press is due to the purity and vibrancy of the dry ink used in the
DocuColor.
