Important •
Because the calibration uses the Tray 5 (Bypass), load plain paper in the Tray 5 (Bypass).
Any other types of paper are not available. For more information, refer to "Paper Tray
Attributes" (P.111).
Note
•
It is recommended that you perform adjustments for all the screen types. After one screen
type is adjusted, specify another screen type and repeat the adjustment procedure.
•
If color gradation is not compensated despite the periodic execution of calibration, contact
our Customer Support Center.
•
The calibration does not execute when [Text] or [Map] is selected for [Original Type] in the
[Image Quality] tab for copying. Before performing calibration, make sure that [Copy
Defaults] in the System Administration mode is set as follows: Lighten/Darken: Normal,
Color Shift: Normal, Saturation: Normal, Color Balance: 0. After finishing the calibration,
change the settings of [Copy Defaults] if necessary. For information about the [Copy
Defaults], refer to "Copy Defaults" (P.126).
