Well, actually, with photographic printing, "any color" is simulated by
placing three, not four, colors around in a pattern (just not a
halftone pattern). The primaries are different and the method is
different, but the principle is the same. In other words, "every pixel
can be any color" is not a correct statement. You are still limited by
the primaries being used.
