A method and system to print selective pages of color images within a print job
having a plurality of pages using selected color improvement options such as black
overprint, anti-aliasing, and trapping. The system identifies and selects one or
more pages within a single print job having a set of a plurality of pages and is
able to apply a plurality of different color improvement operations upon printing
pages having color images thereon. A user interface enables the assigning of a
first color improvement operation to a first subset of pages within the single
print job. A processor determines if the page being processed is a member of the
first subset of pages that have the first color improvement assigned thereto and
performs the first color improvement operation upon the image data associated with
the page when it determines that the page being processed is a member of the first
subset of pages that have the first color improvement assigned thereto.
