  Color Printing
  Color printing furnishes reproduction of images and text in color, which cannot be produced in monochrome printing processes. The technique is also referred to as four-color process printing when only CMYK, i.e., cyan, magenta, yellow, and black are used while printing. Six-color process printing is another method of color printing that involves addition of orange and green colors to the traditional CMYK color scheme, making possible more vibrant color combinations.However, a series of steps are involved in the color printing process to generate a quality color reproduction. Color separation is the most

To this end, Activity-Based Costing (ABC) is used to identify, assign costs to, and report on manufacturing operations.
