eliminate the need for operator intervention. Otherwise, it can be a semiautomated
system.
We have shown the above control loop for one color patch. The nominal CMY
values are constructed using any of the following procedure:
(1) When a printer model is not available, use C ¼ M ¼ Y ¼ d and K ¼ 0 where
d is computed from Equation 8.16 by knowing the gray-balance target for
the chosen patch (i.e., L*, a*, and b* values):

¼ gray-balance target (or 0 for equivalent neutral)

)
(2) When a printer model is available, compute CMY for the L*a*b* gray-
balance target using the ICI algorithm.
To construct three TRCs, we can select N number of patches using the nominal
CMY values obtained for each of the patch gray-balance targets. As a result of this,
we would have N number of control loops running in parallel. If an actual printer is
used, these loops will be iterating on the printer. If a printer model is available, then
the control iterations are carried out as described in Section 7.5.2.2.
