NOTE
• The optional SPECTROVUE VM-10 is required to perform this function.
For more information about the SPECTROVUE VM-10, contact your local MUTOH dealer.
• Before performing this function, make sure to print the nozzle check pattern to check if there is no
missing nozzle.
• In order to perform the Color Verify correctly, make sure to specify the following settings same as
the setting when the baseline was saved. If these settings are different, the color difference may
become large.
• Each Heater Temperature Setting, Effect Setting, CR Print Width Setting, Overwrite Setting.
• Use this function with the head height adjustment lever is in the “Low” position.
• Since the room environment (temperature, humidity) may affect the print color, create the
environment in accordance with the environment condition described in the operating manual
“8.1.1 Printer Specification Environment Condition”. In addition, make sure to place the media and
ink in the printing environment for 2 hours before use.
• In this function, the baseline cannot be saved for each media. To perform the Color Verify with a
different media, the new baseline should be saved. (If the media is replace to the one previously
used, the baseline should be saved again.)
• The “Color Verify” feature is intended to be utilized as an aid to the printer operator in checking for
and isolating potential color reproduction variations that can arise over time due to various factors
common to all printing environments; it is a tool intended to help facilitate implementation of on-
printer process control. As such, it is not in-and-of-itself a guarantee of color reproducibility or
reproduction accuracy, nor does it negate the need for color workflow best practices.
Follow the procedures below to perform the Color Verify.
