Why don t printers use primary colors?
Most printers use cyan, magenta, yellow, and black ink instead of the primary colours we learned in grade school – red, blue, and yellow. The answer has to do with how light is absorbed/reflected by the ink on the paper compared to how light is emitted from a light or displayed on a screen.
Why is it CMYK not CMYB?
The “K” in CMYK stands for key since in four-color printing cyan, magenta, and yellow printing plates are carefully keyed or aligned with the key of the black key plate. Some sources suggest that the “K” in CMYK comes from the last letter in “black” and was chosen because B already means blue.
Why do printers use magenta instead of red?
They don’t emit light, they only reflect light. So when you see red ink, it’s because the paper is absorbing all the other wavelengths and reflecting only red. So mixing paints is the exact opposite of mixing light—you get darker colors, because each time fewer wavelengths are reflected.
