A system and method for eliminating luminance false contours within rendered documents by sacrificing chrominance accuracy within printer halftones and for using the reduction of chrominance to improve the luminance correctness for any requested color. Ordinary halftone processes are modified such that small hue shifts are traded off for the ability to eliminate luminance false contours. Luminances of colored inks are created in a manner that turns on only one color spot at a time, instead of all three, within a slowly changing gray area because numerically equivalent steps in chrominance are much less visible in printed form than changes in luminance. Removal of false contours is therefore achieved by chrominance variations rather than by spatial variations in a document.
