When an RGB gray object (gray with equal R, G, and B values) is printed, it is counted as color.

Cause

If a profile is used to perform RIP processing by the controller, the color is replaced with gray, including CMYK, so an object is counted as color.

Option

KMI controllers

Working time

Five minutes or less

Overview

Processing is performed in the PS interpreter side with no profile used.

Precautions

Color conversion is performed without using any profile, which may reduce the quality.
