4+ color management sequentially processes four colors at a time from among the 4+ colors to leverage solution capability using a 4-color management tools. In methods and apparatus for processing 4+ colors, received information of 4+ colors may be processed in a first stage using four colors of the 4+ colors, such as CMYO. The processed four colors are then mapped into three virtual colors. The mapped three virtual colors and one additional unprocessed color of the 4+ colors are then processed in a second stage using a 4-color tool. From this, a second color model of at least five colors (4+) is generated. The resulting four colors determine five printer colors, and are then mapped into three virtual colors. The mapped three virtual colors and one additional unprocessed color of the 4+ colors are then processed in a third stage using a 4-color tool. From this, a third color model of at least five colors (4+) is generated. This modeling and mapping to virtual input can be repeated for once for each color beyond 4 that is supported by the printer. The processed 4+ colors are output to a device, such as a printing engine, for rendering the image. |
