Why do printers use CMYK instead of RGB?
Printers use CMYK instead of RGB because CMYK is a subtractive color model that is better suited for printing on physical surfaces like paper. CMYK stands for cyan, magenta, yellow, and key (black), and these colors are mixed together to create a wide range of colors on printed materials. RGB, on the other hand, is an additive color model used for electronic displays like computer monitors and TVs.
Computers printers and computers monitors both use the same color system to create color?
No........Printers use CMYK color model to print colors whereas Monitors present pictures using RGB emissions through picture tube.
How many colors of ink are used to print full-color pictures?
It depends on the file's color mode (RGB or CMYK), and the output printer. Most Computer Monitors are RGB (Red, Green, and Blue) color based, as are the majority of printers used by most non-professional users. As such, the file you're working in should be RGB, and rendered/printed as RGB to ensure what you see on screen will look like what's printed on paper. Print publishing graphics have always used a 4 color process, CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black). In addition to the file being CMYK, the output printer should also be CMYK. Many higher-end printers are now CMYK. Sharp's new Aquos Quattron monitor technology is a step toward finally making monitors 4 colors instead of the CRT based 3 colors they were originally designed to handle.
Which colour has the largest color gamut-rgb or cmyk?
RGB has a larger gamut than CMYK. In order from small to large: sRGB, AdobeRGB, ProPhoto RGB. The largest of the CMYK gamut is GRACoL.
Are chameleons RGB or CMYK?
neither
Rgb cmyk hsl or pantone in a document?
If you're printing the image on your desktop printer, use RGB--those printers will convert anything else to RGB, then to CMYK. If you're printing it on a wide-format inkjet printer like a Roland, Mutoh or VUtek, or you're sending it to a printing plant to be printed on an offset or flexo press, use CMYK if you're not using spot colors, and Pantone for the spot colors.
Why should you use CMYK when working with information that will be printed?
Screens reproduce colors by mixing blue, green and red lights (RGB). Printers reproduce colors by mixing cyan, mangenta, yellow and black inks (CMYK).

What happens when you convert RGB to CMYK?
The underlying color model in Photoshop is neither RGB nor CMYK but LAB. It has the widest gamut, which means it can hold more color values than any other model. Of the two other models, RGB has more color values than CMYK does. When you convert from RGB to CMYK, the program first "maps" the RGB values into the LAB colorspace. It then maps the LAB values into the CMYK colorspace. Now, for REAL entertainment...take a pure RGB blue, or a pure RGB green, and attempt to map it into CMYK colorspace. It doesn't work at all. Red maps fine, but the other two go straight to hell.
What happens if a printer uses RGB cartridges instead of CMYK?
go buy RGB cartridges
