Color Management Using the Spectrophotometer Unit (Optional)

Using the Spectrophotometer Unit (optional) allows you to use much more functionality than the sensor built into the
printer and delivers much higher precision color management.
Furthermore, you can execute color calibration and check the calibration logs of printers remotely by using the Color
Calibration Management Console (CCMC) color management utility. If the printer is connected to a network, execution
can be managed remotely from the computer.
