Using AutoCal or ColorCal
Using AutoCal or ColorCal
AutoCal and ColorCal allow you to calibrate the Fiery without using an additional
spectrophotometer or densitometer. Instead, these methods use the copier’s built-in
scanner to measure toner density values.
AutoCal is compatible with earlier Fiery servers. AutoCal and ColorCal have the
following differences:
• Scanner calibration—ColorCal lets you calibrate the scanner (copier feeder) using
the Kodak Color and Gray Scale strips. AutoCal lets you calibrate the copier using
the Kodak Gray Scale strip; scanner calibration is not available.
• Measurement page—For ColorCal, square black-and-white and color patches are
randomly printed on the ColorCal Measurement Page. This allows ColorCal to be
less influenced by copier conditions, providing greater accuracy in color
reproduction and calibration.
You can perform AutoCal or ColorCal calibration from ColorWise Pro Tools.

To calibrate using AutoCal or ColorCal, you will need the Kodak Gray Scale
strip included in the customer media pack that came with your Fiery.
