Halftoning is performed on a source image. The halftoning includes error diffusion processing of one separation based on error diffusion processing of another separation. The error diffusion processing includes determining a rendered pixel value for the one separation by applying a quantization function for a given pixel. The quantization function is based on both a modified input determined as a function of an error value of a pre-rendered pixel for the one separation and an error value determined as a function of rendered pixel values for the another separation. A rendered image is output, which includes the same plural color separations. The output rendered image is populated with, for the one separation, a rendered pixel value based on the application of the quantization function. |
