Color Gamut
A color gamut is a range of colors. The gamut that the human eye can see is
much larger than can be produced in a photograph. The photograph gamut is
much larger than that of an RGB monitor. The RGB monitor gamut is larger than
the CMYK gamut of a Xerox DocuColor system press. The CMYK gamut of offset
printing is significantly less than that of a Xerox DocuColor system. The figure
below compares the color gamuts of the DocuColor 40 and the DocuColor 2060/
2045.
