Four color printing will vary greatly in price depending on the quality and amount of ink used in the printing job as well as the cost of other materials, such as the type of paper used. Four color silkscreen printing uses a different type of material and method, but the costs will vary according to the same variables.
There are a BUNCH of "major" printing processes: Offset--used for printing nearly everything, offset uses a flat plate with water-accepting and water-rejecting areas. The plate is dampened then rolled across an inked roller. The ink sticks to the water-rejecting areas. The plate is then rolled across a "blanket" cylinder, which is pressed against the sheet. Flexography--narrow-web flexo is for packaging, wide-web for newspapers. A plate that looks a LOT like a rubber stamp is inked with an anilox roller, then pressed against the sheet. Letterpress--used largely for packaging, it's a little like flexo except the plates are made from metal. Rotogravure--used for million-impression runs of packaging and publications, a polished copper cylinder is engraved, inked and pressed against the sheet. Wide-format inkjet--used for billboards and vehicle wraps, these are like the inkjet printer you may have attached to your computer, but much larger. Narrow-format inkjet--used for addressing. Digital presses--these are getting very popular. These are laser printers that run hundreds of pages per minute. Some print in color. Intaglio, or Engraving--elegant invitations and banknotes are printed this way. They engrave the information on a flat copper plate then press the stock onto the inked plate.
Four color process printing is a system where a color image is separated into 4 different color values (called a color separation) by the use of filters and screens. This used to be done with photographic film but is usually done digitally with software now. The result is a color separation of 4 images that when transferred to printing plates and sequentially printed on a printing press with the colored inks cyan (blue), magenta (red), yellow and black (the k in cmyk), reproduces the original color image. Many inkjet printers use the same approach but instead of printing sequentially the print head just uses 4 different ink cartridges. Most of the entire spectrum of colors can be reproduced with just the 4 colors.
The ISBN of False Colours is 978-1-4022-1075-4.

Good software will give proper quality photo printing even with normally used color cartridges. HP has got DeskJet printers range for normal photo printing. For better jobs one can use Canon PixmaiP5000 or Epson Stylus c45 and for real professional jobs one must use 4 color ink and 4 color printing system.
Cyan is one of the 4 colors (CMYK) used for printing. These 4 colors Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and black are mixed to get the desired colors for printing specially when having images. Cyan has the tonality of blue.
