4 color process printing is generally used in printing labels with photographic images-by recreating color by combing two or more of the subtractive colors _ cyan, magenta, and yellow, plus black. Spot color printing is generally used for text and simple graphic printing in single colors, usually not more than 3 colors to a label.
