The color component of a digital print original which corresponds to a color in multicolor printing. The most popular four-color printing process is the CMYK color model which requires four separations in the colors cyan, magenta, yellow and black to produce the corresponding printing plates. The color separations that together form a complete color original are known as a color set.

The separations may be made photographically using traditional methods or digitally using electronic scanners and computer programs. The original copy may be a transparency (slide), reflection photographic print, drawing, painting, or printed reproduction.
