Calibrate the scanner
Introduction
To maintain a consistent quality of the output, the Océ TCS400 scanner
operator panel has a calibration wizard.
When to do
Use the scanner calibration wizard to get consistent output of high quality.
Between 2 scanner calibrations, the automatic scanner adjustment stabilizes
the output quality. The automatic scanner adjustment keeps the scanner
independent of changes in the environment.
Use the scanner calibration wizard to start a scanner calibration when the scan
quality decreases.

on the screen.
