Then maybe you'll find the following information interesting too: In particle physics, and more specifically quantum chromodynamics, a "color" charge is used to describe properties of the quarks, the fundamental constituents of protons! Thus we have red, green and blue quarks. Now things get more interesting because, as you might have heard, protons are particles of matter, so you have to combine rgb quarks to create a "white" (or neutrally color charged) proton. And then you have antiprotons that have inverted color charged antiquarks, being cyan, magenta and yellow in colour charge, creating again a color neutral antiproton!!! so, to sum up, matter is fundamentally rgb and antimatter is cmy!!!! Those colors are only metaphorical, as a way to describe their charge and have no relation to the color of physical objects whatsoever! If you are interested in this, look up Murray Gell-Mann and have a nice day :)

It's essentially the same as used by publishers when printing full-color books, magazines, newspapers, etc. Everything is printed at the same intensity, the size of the dots change to give the effect of different amounts of each color. You can usually see it best in the comics section of a newspaper, Sunday edition. A desktop printer will typically measure its resolution in DPI, or dots per inch, and the numbers will be something like 300dpi, 600dpi, and 1200dpi. A halftone image is measured in LPI, or lines per inch, and they will be 75lpi for newspapers and 133lpi for most books and magazines. The halftone grid is at an angle to the page with black at a 45° angle, cyan at 15°, magenta at 75° and yellow at 0°.

Well, you gotta consider the paper is still ever so slightly damp right after the page prints, which means the ink right under the line being printed indeed is still wet during each print head pass. And you better believe the printer manufacturer wants to waste as much ink as humanly possible while still producing a quality printout. So yes, they'll gladly overlap the inks not only in a dithered pattern but also right on top of each other too. Ink costs more than human blood ya know...

If I remember correctly from the Gicleé printing, modern printers do not actually have that many nozzles densely packed in the printer heads. Instead they use "amplitude modulation", i.e. by somehow changing the size of the ink droplets to achieve an *equivalent* of the boasted resolution. The most advanced Gicleé printer goes up to 4800 DPI but the most advanced C-print (the good old Kodak photo printing) has only 640 DPI yet both yield shoulder to shoulder image quality in terms of details.

Hi, not an expert, however I believe we don't have the same issue because CMY are a mix of RGB, basically a Yellow molecule will reflect green and red at the same time, a cyan one will reflect blue and green at the same time, now since they have a common reflected color, which here is green, we won't have any black spots, which is normally caused by the fact that all colors are absorbed, here since both reflect green, then even though red and blue will be absorbed, green won't and we obtain a green color.

As an example, let’s say we want to make blue from cyan and magenta. The molecular layer of cyan reflects green and blue (primary colors that make cyan). When it passes through magenta, it will only allow blue to pass through as green is absorbed. Likewise, when red and blue (primary colors that make magenta) are reflected from magenta and pass through cyan, only blue is reflected as red is absorbed. No black color is produced.

It's down to how much it reflects. RGB inks only reflect 1/3 colours from the incoming light. CMY inks reflect 2/3, so any two inks will always have a common colour reflected and thus you only get black when you have all three together. Well, in the ideal case, anyway. Real inks aren't perfect and tend to produce brown rather than black when you mix all three primaries together, which is why you have black ink as well. Using actual black instead of a mix of CMY also reduces how wet the paper gets, which is good for keeping it flat.

The inkjet printer is cheap because the manufacturers make the printer at a loss and takes back the profits on the ink. Its often cheaper to throw away the entire machine and buy a new then to replace the ink cartridges and so this contributes to todays throw away society where fully working things are thrown away on the scrap heap because its cheaper to get a new then to repair it or replenish its supplies. Also when the head cleaning procedure is performed this takes more ink then to print a page with 100 % coverage to waste ink on purpose and this cleaning cycle is performed every time you want to print something after just some day of previous inactivity even if you just want to print some text at the moment. At least thats how it was on my Epson photo printer. Needles to say I got myself a laser instead as I don´t print that often and so the printer ended up wasting 90 % of the ink on head cleaning.

theyre still inkjet, just ink is in a separate tank instead of a tiny amount in the cartridge, which is also the printhead, this is one reason why theyre expensive

Yet another great video with easy to understand language and awesome animations. So why did you let such an obvious mistake into the final edit? Surely someone on your team knows that minute has two pronunciations, and the difference has a huge impact on getting your point across. Discussing display technology around the 0:16 mark, the use of the word is for very small (my-nyoot), not a time frame (men-nut). That should never have slipped by. Otherwise, excellent as always!

Amazing. Honestly never thought so much science behind

as a traditional artist (who does landscape painting) and an (maybe unhealthy?) interest in printers, I feel like my brain expanded and i cant stop smiling to appreaciate this channel.

Inkjet ink - one of the most expensive liquids on the face of this planet. Printers are sold at a loss as the ink more than makes up for sustained profits.

I don't get the example with putting RGB ink into the printer. Doesn't the printer still assume it has CMY colors, and hence the result?

Technically you are right, but you could print a version of the image where the hues are shifted 180 degrees. This will cause cyan to become red, magenta green and yellow blue (and vice versa) while not changing brightness. By replacing the colors appropriately, the experiment could be performed. I'm not sure they bothered to do that, though, since they knew it would fail anyway (for the reasons given later).

Actually what's the doubt here? Why should printer assume anything?.. Like does the printer know which colour we use inside it?
