Adjusting Gradation
Gradation refers to the dark to light continuum of shades of a color. The more shades in the gradations of colors that
are printed, the more natural printouts seem. If color reproducibility becomes poor and the density and brightness of
printouts differs markedly from the originals, perform the appropriate adjustment (calibration). There are three types
of adjustments: "Full Adjust" for accurate adjustment, "Quick Adjust" for simple adjustment, and "Adjust Copy Image"
for gradation adjustment, especially for copying.

●
Frequent calibration may affect the lifetime of toner cartridges.
●
When the remaining amount of toner in cartridges is low, performing calibration may result in disruption of
color balance. If this phenomenon actually occurs after calibration, it is recommended that you replace any
toner cartridges of low remaining amount.
●
The machine performs automatic adjustment (automatic calibration) in accordance with changes in the
usage condition or environmental conditions.
Full Adjust
This adjustment optimizes reproducibility for color printing. When the machine performs full adjustment, it obtains
information to optimize color reproducibility. The machine maintains this information until the next time you perform
full adjustment. To make a full adjustment, repeat the operation, "print out the adjustment image and scan it,"
multiple times. Note that you cannot perform this adjustment while performing some functions, including, scanning,
and printing.
