ABSTRACT:
Image forming apparatus makes at least a two color image from an original having some color. The apparatus includes a color scanner which scans the original area-by-area for color content and picks an accent color from available accent colors in the apparatus from the color content analysis. A typical output would be a print in which an original is reproduced in a combination of black and a color picked which color is closest to one of the predominant colors in the original.
