Color calibration aligns the inkjets of the cartridges to each other. Misalignment
can result from small tolerance variations in cartridges during manufacturing and
from cartridge alignment in the printer. Color test patterns let you check the
horizontal and vertical alignment values and adjust them for the best printing
results. A loupe is provided in the accessory box to help you check the prints.
You should perform Color Deadband Compensation before performing Color
Calibration. Perform Color Deadband Calibration and Color Calibration each
time a cartridge is replaced with a different cartridge. If you remove and
reinstall the same cartridge, only Color Calibration needs to be performed.
