Page 70: Image Processing
To compensate for these differences, the colors are converted by your printer using image processing. Image processing is the process of translating your computer file into printer toner. Your printer uses TekColor Correction to translate color from your computer to your printer.
Page 71: Color Calibration
Color calibration procedures adjust the printer for optimal color output. Color settings may need adjustment upon initial printer setup or when toners and imaging units are replaced. There are two procedures: Balance Colors and Lighten/Darken Colors. If a finer adjustment of the primary colors (cyan, magenta, and yellow) is needed, start with the Balance Colors procedure.
Page 72: Paper Calibration
Follow the instructions for adjusting toner transfer settings at the printer’s front panel. Color Sampler Pages Sampler pages for CMYK and RGB color can be printed at the printer’s front panel. Before printing the sampler pages, set the front panel settings to match the printer driver’s settings.
