Note
•
We recommend using only one type of paper for color calibration. Using the same type of paper for
color calibration can improve color consistency.
•
For better color consistency, we recommend performing color calibration under the same conditions of
temperature and humidity each time.
•
For further adjustment of the color of documents as printed applying color calibration, adjust the color in
the printer driver. (→P.236)
•
You can check when color calibration was executed and what paper was used from Status Print,
imagePROGRAF Status Monitor (in Windows) or imagePROGRAF Printmonitor (on a Macintosh
computer) in the MAIN MENU on the Control Panel.
For menu details, see "Main Menu Settings". (→P.53)
For details on imagePROGRAF Status Monitor, refer to the imagePROGRAF Status Monitor help.
For details on imagePROGRAF Printmonitor, refer to the imagePROGRAF Printmonitor help.
