I am hereby documenting few of my thoughts about black colour behaviour on Physical Paper & on Computer Display or on Screen.
I was from BFA (Bachelor of Fine Arts) – Applied Art background so we had subjects like Illustration, Calligraphy, Typography, Print Media Design, Logo & Symbol Design, Branding & Identity Design.
We use to design our assignments using Japan Black ink which is vary dark in contrast & which creates high contrast reach feeling of black colour tone on white paper.
So when we print our designs done in Adobe Illustrator or CorelDraw we use to fill the design with (CMYK) Cyan: 100%, Magenta: 100%, Yellow: 100%, K(Black): 100% than using only K: 100%. This CMYK values use to create high contrast Japan Black ink fill on White Paper.

Here is The example…

Even Numbers of Pixels:
10px by 10px, with 1px of rounded corners it fails to generate illusion of circular when viewed at actual size or at maximum size
