Managing Colors
When operating with multiple printers
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.
Furthermore, using the CCMC color management utility allows an administrator to centrally manage multiple re-
motely connected printers from a single computer, and to reduce the variations in color tone between the printed
material output from multiple printers.
For example, this lets you grasp the color management status (information on the date, time, and paper when col-
or calibration was executed) of each printer, and allows you to execute color calibration on each printer from a
remote location.
The CCMC color management utility is used to perform this kind of centralized management.
Furthermore, in CCMC, if you are printing on the same paper on multiple printers, you can manage the color differ-
ences between each printer to fit within a fixed range. This function is called calibration link, and is displayed in the
same Calibration group in CCMC. The following conditions are required when using the calibration link function.
The same paper is loaded in the printers
Color calibration is executed on the paper loaded in the printers
The printers are on
The printers being color managed support the calibration link function
For a detailed explanation, see the following.
Managing Colors Using Printer Sensors
Color Management Using the Spectrophotometer Unit (Optional)
When using paper other than genuine Canon paper and feed certified paper
You can also reduce the variations in printed color tones when using paper other than genuine Canon paper and
feed certified paper by creating a Calibration Target by using this printer with a Spectrophotometer Unit (optional)
mounted and the included MCT.
You can also execute color calibration on paper other than genuine Canon paper and feed certified paper by regis-
tering a custom media information file that contains this Calibration Target using the included MCT on printers
(12-color models) that support calibration link without a spectrophotometer unit mounted.
Furthermore, it is also possible to execute color calibration on paper other than genuine Canon paper and feed
certified paper even on remote printers (12-color models) that support calibration link by sending the Custom Me-
dia Information File that contains the Calibration Target by e-mail.
This allows you to operate efficiently and at reduced cost because you can perform calibration operations that uni-
fy color tones across workplaces.
