Determination of control points for construction of first color space-to-second color space look-up table

A printer having a multi-dimensional look-up table (LUT) for conversion from a first color space to a second color space, the LUT constructed by performing a method comprising:

• determining automatically a plurality of control points including a black control point, a white control point, and a plurality of primary control points for first and secondary primary colors of the first and the second color spaces;
• and,
• constructing the multi-dimensional LUT based on the plurality of control points as automatically determined.

A system for constructing a multi-dimensional look-up table (LUT) for conversion from a first color space to a second color space comprising:

• means for automatically determining a plurality of control points including a black control point, a white control point, and a plurality of primary control points for first and secondary primary colors of the first and the second color spaces;
• and,
• means for constructing the multi-dimensional LUT based on the plurality of control points.

A system comprising:

• a host device generating an image;
• and,
• a printer receiving the image and printing the image after conversion thereof from a first color space to a second color space in accordance with a multi-dimensional look-up table (LUT) previously constructed using automatically generated control points.
