Managing Colors

Color management (color calibration) corrects for variations in color tones due to differences between
printers and aging, and obtains continuously stable corrected color tones.
The color tones of this printer can be corrected by executing color calibration.
If you have multiple printers, you can make the color tones of the printers the same by executing color
calibration on each of the printers.
Execute Color Calibration
Executing color calibration improves color consistency by compensating for slight differences in how color
appears due to individual variations or aging among the printers.
You can use the operation panel to enable or disable the color calibration adjustment values, view the
calibration status, and configure notifications when color calibration needs to be executed.
You can also execute color calibration from Device Management Console.
