Abstract
A customized tone reproduction curve is created by the operation of an independent processor system associated with the image processor for a full color printer. Data for the customized tone curves is entered through a customizing interface according to the discretion of the user. The customized reproduction tone curve is then combined with the original color data to generate customized color image data. The customized color data is then calibrated by combination with the current calibration tone reproduction curve.
