ABSTRACT:
A color printer calibration method for improving printer accuracy in regions of local non-linearity includes the steps of: a) starting with filled rectangular array of color mappings A.sub.0 mapping printer signals to device independent color space signals; b) empirically deriving a set of color mappings P.sub.i in an area of interest; c) using a set of planes defined by the color mappings of A.sub.0, and the set of empirically derived color mappings P.sub.i, identifying a new set of planes such that each point defined by A.sub.0 and each point defined by P.sub.i is located at the intersection of three planes, the intersection points of this expanded number of planes defining a set of points P.sub.i(expanded) that define a full rectangular array A.sub.1 of mappings including mappings A.sub.0, mappings P.sub.i and mappings P.sub.i(expanded) ; d) storing the mapping A.sub.1 for use in the creation of a new color space transformation LUT for use with the printer.
