Print Engine Calibration; Printer Color Correction; Manually Setting Color Corrections; Phaser 740 - Tektronix Phaser 740 Service Manual

Print engine calibration

Generally, no print engine calibration is required. Usually, if you note a print defect,
replacing a toner cartridge, the imaging unit or the transfer roller (or perhaps the
paper feeder) corrects the problem.

Printer color correction

Correcting printer colors is accomplished manually. You use front panel menus to
make the corrections.
