Adjusting the Gray Balance
The ink ribbon and the paper are contained in one same package as a pair. The gray
balance may differ depending on each pair. It is recommended that you adjust the
gray balance each time you reload the ink ribbon and paper.
The gray balance was set to No.0 at the factory. The setting of the gray balance
remains effective until reset - even if you turn the power off.
Before adjusting the gray balance
Perform the following:
• Set the adjusted values for printouts, except SHARPNESS and LAMINATION,
to zero (0). (See page 23.)
If the printout adjustment was performed at the computer site, then also set them
to 0.
• Set the gray balance to pattern No.0, if you adjusted the gray balance previously.
(See explanation described below.)
