Abstract
A method for inkjet printing machine color control includes color transformation of print data from first color space to process color space in a first stage using a computer transforming print data from the first to an intermediate color space while keeping special colors, and a second stage transforming corrected print data including special colors from intermediate to process color space. The computer uses print data corrected after the first stage as second stage starting values. Print data transformed into the process color space are printed. First color space corresponds to CMYK, flexographic printing or RGB color space with special colors, intermediate color space corresponds to CMYK color space with special colors, process color space corresponds to CMYK color space with additional process colors. The computer corrects CMY, not K print data or special not transformed colors, when correcting print data in the intermediate color space after the first stage.
