Florian, No, I use "color"

Florian,

No, I use "color" they way you do.

I think the "color" of a digital press, those I've seen anyway, is heavier than with an offset press. With digital printing, the letterforms are thicker, fatter, less distinct than with an offset press. I've seen several books printed both ways, and side by side, I can tell the difference at 3 feet, with my glasses off.
