Abstract
“ICC 3D” software is a very useful tool for color engineering. It can be used for testing gamut boundary description, gamut visualization and gamut mapping. In this paper, the printing gamuts of EPSON Stylus Photo R270 color ink-jet printer were tested and analyzed by “ICC 3D” software. The gamuts that different “Printing Quality” options in printing driver, different media and different color output models can reproduce were respectively tested, compared and analyzed. For most of the current color ink-jet printers, no matter whether the functions of their printing drivers are complex or not, their printing functions and controlling parameters are similar. Therefore, it is hoped that the research methods and results of this paper can have great realistic significance to application of color ink-jet printers.
