Abstract

Transforming CIE L*a*b* values to printer CMY values must be done when a colorimetric match is wanted for the printer output. The cost of such conversion is high. This paper describes a new efficient algorithm to perform this transformation. The computational cost is shown to be logarithmic in the number of sampling cells.
