    Systems with a 12-bit RGB palette use 4 bits for each of the red, green, and blue color components. This results in a (2 4) 3 = 16 3 = 4096-color palette. 12-bit color can be represented with three hexadecimal digits, also known as shorthand hexadecimal form, which is commonly used in web design. The palette is as follows:

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_software_palettes

    This is a list of software palettes used by computers. Systems that use a 4-bit or 8-bit pixel depth can display up to 16 or 256 colors simultaneously. Many personal computers in the early 1990s displayed at most 256 different colors, freely selected by software (either by the user or by a program) from their wider hardware's RGB color palette.

    Paper shade plays a significant role in the quality of colour reproduction. The shade of the paper affects the colour values of the primary and secondary colours and hence the colour gamut of a press. The standard for paper shade of newsprint as per ISO 12647-3 is mentioned in the table.

Three separate electron guns are used for color production (except for displays that use beam-index tube technology, which is rare).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_chromatography

    A circular filter paper is taken and the sample is deposited at the center of the paper. After drying the spot, the filter paper is tied horizontally on a Petri dish containing solvent, so that the wick of the paper is dipped in the solvent. The solvent rises through the wick and the components are separated into concentric rings.
