Reduce Printing Cost Online
In 1 Click, Reduce Colors Without Compromise
Click any edit style below, to adjust HSL/RGB of colors, or image transformations. To reduce 'CMY' Printing Colors : reduce red/green/blue primary colors , or lower saturation and contrast; but, increase black-white to improve color resolution , clarity and sharpness of image. Note Following , on how RGB combinations form CMY components: Green + Blue = Cyan, Red+ Blue = Magenta, Red + Green = Yellow .

Easily adjust Red,Green,Blue (RGB) for best CMY (Cyan/Magenta/Yellow) changes
Red/Green/Blue (RGB) are additive primary colors , used to create colors on digital screens by combining these lights (0–255). It is the standard color system for digital screens (monitors, televisions, digital cameras, and scanners) producing white when all colors are at full intensity. CMY stands for Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow, a subtractive color model (subtracting light) used in color printing, where mixing all three produces black (dark tones). This online system helps you to manipulate image colors well, by easily adjusting Red/Green/Blue individually. To increase or decrease CMY (Cyan/Magenta/Yellow) colors , simply combine the adjustment of the 2 relevant, additive primary colors (Red/Green/Blue). Following is an elaborate break down: Green + Blue = Cyan, Red+ Blue = Magenta, Red + Green = Yellow
Reduce color printing costs by Saturation, Lightness (HSL) adjustments
This involves decreasing the intensity and brightness of colors before printing, which directly lowers toner or ink consumption. You can achieve this by desaturation, as reducing the saturation (color intensity) of a color, lowers the overall CMY values, making them move closer to gray or white, which will help to reduce cost on print. Although, reducing saturation will directly reduce the color depth of the picture, this editor provides special ability to maintain color depth, by adjusting black-white, saturation, contrast, simultaneously. When you reduce the saturation, increase black-white adjustments. Further, if you want to make the photo lighter or darker, adjust the adjacent ‘darkness’ setting. Or else, if you want to increase saturation, increase the ‘saturation’ setting or ‘contrast’ setting as desired. When adjusting the ‘contrast’ , you can alter the ‘darkness’ ( adjacent control), to get a more light or dark result. By using this online tool, you can easily saturate or desaturate the picture, along with instant adjustments to black ( K ink), and have a beautiful, instantly printable image, without further printer adjustments, or Hassle.
Reducing magenta, cyan, yellow, usage
In standard CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Key/Black) printing, green is not a dedicated ink. Instead, it is created by blending cyan and yellow. Similarly , cyan and magenta creates Blue, and magenta plus yellow creates red. By reducing red, green, blue, the use of CMY can be lowered. You can use the red/green/blue (RGB) decrease or removal tools/links to lower CMY or color ink. Also, as an additional feature, you can use the same tools to adjust black-white, if required. However, with this editor, reducing a color does not affect picture quality drastically as it uses special algorithms to balance the decrease according to pixel hsl values. Instead, picture beauty may increase due to special effects.
Change the dominant color
A dominant color is the primary hue that occupies the largest space. You can switch the dominant color to Red/Green/Blue/orange/cyan/purple/lime/azure/pink, and gain advantages in color printing. In this process, color of each individual pixel is replaced with your chosen color range, maintaining picture detail. Further, you can adjust contrast, black-white, saturation, darkness simultaneously with this conversion. More elaborately, the combination of CMY components for dominant colors are as follows : red = magenta + yellow ; green = cyan + yellow ; blue= magenta + cyan; orange = yellow + magenta; purple = magenta + cyan; lime = yellow + cyan; azure = cyan + magenta; pink = magenta + yellow;
