Performing a Color Density Calibration
To perform a Color Density Calibration:
1. To evaluate the current calibration for cyan and magenta density, hold the Cyan/Magenta
Calibration page at an arm length away.
Note: To obtain accurate adjustments, ensure that your environment lighting matches the
Lighting Type selected in Starting a Color Density Calibration.
2. To determine the best match, evaluate the comb pattern in the dark cyan and magenta rows,
labeled A. Mark the section where the bottom comb most closely blends into the background
color. If the best match is between two combs, write down a number value between the two
printed comb values. A close match for the zero comb means that the row is calibrated.
3. If the best comb for any row is a value other than zero, an adjustment is required. On the touch
screen, touch Edit , then for that color, touch A . Move the slider to the value that you want. When
finished, to save the values and print a revised calibration page, touch OK .
4. Repeat the process by marking the best match for the medium and light rows, labeled B and C.
5. Use the updated calibration page to repeat the process until the best comb for every cyan and
magenta row is zero. To continue to the green and white color density adjustments, touch Next .
