In a color ink jet printer, even if the color cartridge is one physical catridge, there are three separate ink tanks inside that cartridge....one for magenta, one for cyan, and one for yellow. They are already separated. The color printer then combines each color (by spraying them on the paper in different levels) to form your color printout. This is all done electronically through the ink cartridge's print head (or your printer's print head). The printer can control each color and apply each to the paper in a varying amount.In a color printer, while printing how does it separate different colors?
normally achieved through a 4 color machine using 4 colours yellow red blue and black ,however it can be done by a 2 color or one color but greater experience is needed. if an example of the print is taken say red and yellow ,solid red solid yellow produces orange however if the either one of these colours is broken down by useing dots say the yellow red becomes more predomenant the smaller the dot the less colour it will reflect in essence it is a reflection of light the black is used to highlight those areas in a 4 color pic that cannot be achieved by using the remaining colours red yellow blue which in essence make black according to the colour spectrum
Printer colours usually comes in RGB or CMYK. Signals are already separated by ur computer. The values are sent to your printer that process how much of which colours are needed and then they print.
