Generating a print preview

摘要

In an embodiment, a processor-readable medium stores code representing instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to receive a request for a print-preview of an image, convert RGB data of the image to CMYK data, convert the CMYK data to converted RGB data, and generate the print-preview of the image with the converted RGB data.

主权项

1. A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to:
receive a request for a print-preview of an image; convert RGB data of the image to CMYK data using a color map associated with a specific printer; retrieve ink level information from the specific printer; determine a first ink level for a first ink for a CMYK color after a first swath of the image would be printed in the specific printer; adjust the CMYK data based on the determined first ink level; determine a second ink level for the first ink for the CMYK color after a second swath of the image would be printed subsequent to the first swath in the specific printer; adjust the CMYK data based on the determined second ink level in the specific printer; convert the CMYK data adjusted based on the determined second ink level to converted RGB data using the color map; and generate the print-preview of the image with the converted RGB data.
