Avoid Highlight TonalJumps in the Color Channels (CMY)

Tonal jumps arise from transitions between no dots and dots in Flexo printing.

Due to minimum dot size, dots appear dark, while no-dot areas show substrate color, causing abrupt transitions.

FlexoFix eliminates this by filling no-dot areas with dots, smoothing transitions for seamless prints.
