ALIBRATING THE
S
CANNER
Calibrate the scanner if colors appear in areas that should be white, or colors of the
scanned image and the original vary a lot. This allows you to adjust and compensate for
variations that can occur in the optical component over time by its nature.
The following describes how to calibrate the scanner:
1. The Calibration Sheet, marked with an arrow on either edge at both sides, is used
specially for
ADF Scanning
calibration.
2. Insert the special calibration sheet into the ADF of the scanner, with an arrow
toward the scanner buttons.
Attention
Please insert the special calibration sheet included
with the scanner. Alternatively you may also use
any plain white sheet of paper sized in Letter/A4
instead; however, the calibration effect may be less
good than the special calibration sheet.
