Abstract
Color imaging devices, color image forming methods, and color image data processing methods are described. According to one embodiment, a color imaging device includes interface circuitry configured to access color image data comprising a plurality of initial values for a plurality of pixels of a first color space, translating circuitry coupled with the interface circuitry and configured to receive the initial values and to provide a plurality of respective translated values responsive to the received initial values, color space conversion circuitry coupled with the translating circuitry and configured to convert the translated values to a plurality of respective converted values of a second color space different than the first color space, and an image engine coupled with the color space conversion circuitry and configured to form a color image using the converted values of the second color space.
