General Information
About Color
Everybody has an idea of what hue an object has, for example, an apple is
red, a lemon is yellow, and the sky is blue. Hue is the tint by which the color of
an object is classied as red, yellow, blue, etc.
Brightness is the degree of lightness in a color,
as compared with another color, which makes
it a light color or a dark color. For example,
when comparing the yellow of a lemon and
the yellow of a grapefruit, it is obvious that the
yellow of the lemon is brighter. But what about
when comparing the yellow of a lemon and the
red of a bean? Obviously, the yellow of the
lemon is brighter. Brightness is this degree of
lightness that enables comparison regardless of
the hue.
What makes the difference between the
yellow of a lemon and the yellow a pear? By
saying that the lemon is a more vivid yellow
and the pear is a duller yellow, the difference
between the two colors is stated in terms
of saturation, as opposed to brightness. As
opposed to hue and brightness, saturation is
the characteristic that indicates the degree of
vividness.

Hue, brightness and saturation are the elements that we call the “three attributes of color”. We can
think of their affects using the solid object shown in gure 1, where the outer edge is the hue, the
vertical axis is the brightness, and the horizontal axis from the center is the saturation.
Assigning colors to the solid object, representing the three attributes of color, shown in gure 1
produces the color model shown in gure 2. Although the level of saturation differs for each hue
and degree of brightness, creating a complex color model, we can get a better understanding of
the conditions under which the hue, brightness and saturation vary.

By mixing the four toner colors (yellow, magenta, and cyan in addition to black) in a
full-color copy, the colors of the document can be reproduced.
Changing the amount of each color of toner enables the tints in the copy to be
nely adjusted. Each color can be adjusted to a level within a range of 0% and
200% (in 1% increments).
