Italian term

tutte passate sul canale del nero

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Printing & Publishing
La tecnica UCR (Under Colour Removal) è quindi adatta per ridurre la copertura totale di inchiostro nelle ombre, tenendo in contempo in evidenza i dettagli. Risultano pero’ ombre relativamente piatte (tutte passate sul canale del nero).

Subject: Trattamento Colore

only the black channel is used

Under Color Removal (UCR) :
The technique of reducing the cyan, magenta and yellow ink in the darkest neutral areas of the image reproduction and **replacing them with a controlled amount of black** (my **). The image reproduction will appear normal but will use less ink, the shadows will have more detail, and trapping will be improved.

Peer comment(s):
agree Roberta Anderson : yes, although "canale" here is actually used improperly, what they mean is "separation" or "plate"; black appears richer in print if a bit of cyan or magenta is added, even if you only want to print dark grey or black.

Indeed, but the text doesn't say whether it's referring specifically to the plate, or to the up-stream DTP system. Yes, residual cyan/magenta can be left (not 'added') to avoid the dullness mentioned in the source text, but the text doesn't mention that.
agree Lilli Translate
