color prints

Non-monochrome photo copies

Color prints are photographs or reproductions printed with multiple ink colors rather than black and white.

The term often distinguishes from monochrome in photography: I ordered color prints of the wedding photos.

In art, color prints are works produced through printmaking techniques—lithographs, screen prints, or woodcuts—that incorporate color: The gallery featured Japanese color prints from the Edo period.
