Correcting The Color Gradation - Ricoh CL1000N User Manual

Correcting the Color Gradation

Color gradation during color printing
changes slightly, depending on a
number of factors. If you print the
same file repeatedly or toner was re-
cently replaced, changes may occur in
color tones. When this happens, to
obtain suitable print results, color
gradation can be corrected, although
it is not usually necessary to make
any particular settings.
Note
❒ If suitable results cannot be obtained
after a single operation, repeat the
correction several times, as needed.
❒ Corrections to color gradation will
be applied to all user jobs.
❒ Use the same paper when printing
a run of gradation corrections. If a
different type of paper is used, cor-
rections may not be apparent.
❒ This requires the use of the sup-
plied Color Calibration Sample
Sheet.
