When printing in full color CMYK, percentages of all four colors are often used to create a richer looking black. A common configuration of percentages is as follows: Cyan C 75% Magenta C 68% Yellow C 67% BlacK C 90% A standard black would simply be 100% Black, with the other colors all printing 0%.
