ABSTRACT:
An ink usage estimator signal is developed representing the amount of ink required to print on a receptive media a portion of an image which is on film, such as a color separation. A video signal representing the portion of the selected image is gated by area pulses during periods of the video signal which define the selected portion of the image. The gated video signal is averaged to develop the ink usage estimator signal, which represents the amount of ink required to print the selected portion of the image.
