An Analysis of Illuminant Metamerism for Lithographic substrates and Tone Reproduction

Using metamerism index as a criterion variable representative of illuminant metamerism, the present research examines the potential effect of measurement condition (M1, M0), near-neutral patch type, and paper type on illuminant metamerism. Measurement condition and paper type are found to be relevant factors contributing to illuminant metamerism, while the near-neutral patch types are likely to have much less effect on the criterion variable here.
