Color Calibration Management Console 

The enhanced Color Calibration Management Console (CCMC) is a 
Canon software utility for centralized color management of S-series 
printers in the Calibration Link. When CCMC is enabled, printers in the 
Calibration Link can be monitored and calibrated for optimal color 
accuracy.  
Calibration notification intervals can be set based on dot count or actual 
color measurement results. The Color Management Console is available 
at no charge.

available for the imagePROGRAF iPF6400S/8400S/9400S series printers.
