Abstract:
Recording data for recording an achromatic color image having a high lightness is generated as follows. A first color material and a second color material which has a hue complementary to that of the first color material are used to record the image. Recording data is generated such that a recording amount of the first color material and a recording amount of the second color material are larger than a recording amount of another color material, and such that a pixel where it is determined that the first color material is to be recorded and a pixel where it is determined that the second color material is to be recorded are at positions different from each other.

Claim (Index 20):
An image processing method for, to record an image on a recording medium using a plurality of color materials including a first color material and a second color material which has a hue complementary to that of the first color material, processing image data corresponding to the image, the image processing method comprising:\n converting the image data into pieces of color material data corresponding to the plurality of color materials; and based on the converted pieces of color material data, generating recording data to be used to record the plurality of color materials, wherein predetermined image data indicating a color that is an achromatic color and has a gradation less than or equal to an intermediate gradation in a gradation range for color reproduction is converted into the pieces of color material data such that a recording amount of the first color material and a recording amount of the second color material are larger than a recording amount of a color material different from the first and second color materials among the plurality of color materials, and wherein the recording data is generated such that a pixel where it is determined according to the recording data that the first color material is to be recorded and a pixel where it is determined according to the recording data that the second color material is to be recorded are at positions different from each other.
