Understanding calibration
C9800 Color Guide - 37
To monitor print quality, print the following color reference pages:
• Color Charts from the Control Panel (see the
Chapter 4
)
• Color Charts from Command WorkStation/Command WorkStation LE (see
“Printing Fiery Information Pages” in the
Chapter 2
)
• Color reference pages included with the user software (see “Introduction” in the
User Software Installation Guide
All these pages include fully saturated color patches and pale tints of cyan, magenta,
yellow, and black. Images with skin tones offer a very good basis for comparison. Save
and compare pages you printed at different times. If there is a noticeable change in
appearance, calibrate the Fiery.
When you examine the Test Page, all color patches should be visible, even though they
may be very faint in the five percent and two percent range. Each color’s patch set
should show uniform gradation from patch to patch as the color lightens from 100
percent to zero percent.
If the solid density patches (100% cyan, magenta, yellow, or black) look less saturated
with time, show the pages to your printer service technician to determine whether
adjusting the printer can improve output.
Checking calibration status
To verify whether the Fiery is calibrated, which calibration set and output profile were
used, and when the printer was last calibrated:
• Print a Configuration page or Test Page from the Control Panel or Command
WorkStation/Command WorkStation LE.
• Select a calibration set in Calibrator (available from ColorWise Pro Tools); the last
calibration and the user who performed it are displayed.
