Calibrations
Color Calibration
Color calibration procedures adjust the printer for optimal color output. Color settings
may need adjustment:
■
On initial printer setup.
■
When Toner Cartridges and Imaging Units are replaced.
■
When the printer environment changes.
■
If the printer has been stored for some time.
■
If the printer has not received significant use.
There are two procedures; Lighten/Darken Colors and Balance Colors.
If the overall image appears either too light or dark, use the Lighten/Darken colors
procedure. If a finer adjustment of the primary colors, cyan, magenta and yellow, is
needed, continue with the balance colors procedure.
Print the Calibrate Colors Tutorial Page from the printer’s front panel
Troubleshooting <=> Print Quality Problems Menu and follow the
instructions detailed on the page.
Margin Calibration
The Calibrate Margins Menu allows you to adjust the printer’s imaging area relative
to the edges of the paper. The imaging area is shown as a dashed rectangle on the front
side of the print, the printer will not print outside this rectangle. The dashed rectangle
should line up with the solid rectangle printed on the back side of the page. Hold up to
strong light for verification.
