| Six-color Process (Hi-Fi) |
| Process orange and process green is added to process cyan, magenta, yellow and black to extend the color palette, and to intensify color images. |

| Split Fountain |
| A split fountain uses two or more ink color in a single press fountain and lets the oscillation of the press blend them together. A full spectrum of color can be achieved at a one-color cost. Because of the "mixing" of inks, frequent wash ups are required with a split fountain. |
