ABSTRACT:
A color image signal processing method for a color image input/output system reads an original by an image input section and corrects the color and gradation of the thus obtained image signals and feeds output density signals for each color to an image output device. The processing method includes the steps of calculating differences between desired finished densities and the output density signals at specified points on the original which are obtained by converting input density signals on the specified points based upon reference gradation conversion curves and then prepares characteristic curves of the differences with respect to the output density signals using the same functions for the respective colors and then prepares corrected gradation conversion curves by adding the reference gradation conversion curves to the functions. The functions are then determined so that the corrected gradation conversion curves are within a specified inclination range so as to thereby correct a gradation conversion table as well as correcting a color correction table by limiting the values of color correction coefficients so as to remove color distortion of output images.
