• The color calibration adjustment value is applied in all print jobs, including jobs with paper other than the
paper used for color calibration, ensuring that the optimal value is always applied when printing.
• You can choose whether or not to apply color calibration in printing from the printer driver or the Control
Panel menu. Printer driver settings are given priority.
For details on the Control Panel menu, see "Menu Settings."
For details on printer driver settings, refer to the following topics.
• Printer Driver Settings (Windows)
• Printer Driver Settings (Mac OS X)
• Before color calibration, ensure the printer is not exposed to direct sunlight or other strong sources of light.
• If, when reinstalling the printer driver, you change the region selection of the Media Configuration Tool, the
region-specific paper information originally registered on the printer before installation will be deleted. Us-
ing paper with deleted information when executing color calibration will prevent the resulting calibration ad-
justment value from being applied to all other types of the paper. If you wish to apply calibration results,
prepare paper compatible with calibration in the newly selected region and perform calibration again. (See
Media Configuration Tool
• To restore the default settings, select System Setup > Reset PaprSetngs > Yes in the Control Panel menu.
Because paper information added or modified by the Media Configuration Tool is deleted, if you have cali-
brated the printer using paper with information added by the Media Configuration Tool, color calibration
executed this way can no longer be applied to any type of paper. If you wish to apply calibration results,
prepare calibration-compatible paper that was in the original settings and perform calibration again. (See Me-
dia Configuration Tool
Note
• We recommend executing color calibration with one type of paper. Using the same type of paper for color
calibration can improve color consistency.
• For better color consistency, we recommend executing color calibration under the same conditions of tem-
perature and humidity each time.
• After color calibration, you can adjust colors further in the printer driver, if desired. (See "Adjusting the
Color in the Printer Driver.")
• You can confirm the date and paper used for color calibration by accessing Status Print in the Control Panel
menu, or by referring to imagePROGRAF Status Monitor (in Windows) or imagePROGRAF Printmonitor
(in Mac OS X).
For details on the Control Panel menu, see "Menu Settings."
For details on imagePROGRAF Status Monitor, refer to the imagePROGRAF Status Monitor help.
For details on imagePROGRAF Printmonitor, refer to the imagePROGRAF Printmonitor help.
