Calibrating Your Printer To Your Scanner; Performing The Printer Calibration - Epson ActionScanner II User Manual

Calibrating Your Printer to Your Scanner

If you print color images, you must choose or create a calibration
profile for each color printer you use. Using printer calibration
profiles ensures that printed colors closely match the colors of
the original image.
If you have one of these EPSON Stylus
Scan! II provides printer calibration profiles for you so you do
not have to create them:
EPSON Stylus COLOR
EPSON Stylus COLOR II
EPSON Stylus COLOR IIs
EPSON Stylus Pro
EPSON Stylus Pro XL
For these printers, you simply select the correct printer
calibration profile before you scan an image. See "Scanning
Using Calibration" on page 2-7.
If you have a color printer that is not a color EPSON Stylus, you
must create a printer calibration profile using the instructions in
this section. It is also best to create additional profiles for
different printer settings, as described below.

Performing the Printer Calibration

Follow these steps:
1. From Windows 95, click the Start button, point to Programs,
