Color Management Guide

Create an Empty Color Resource

In order to perform the pre-calibration engine density adjustment, a Color Resource must be 
created with no calibration data associated with it. This is because we want to simulate native 
engine performance. Follow these steps to create an Empty Color Resource. There is a separate 
procedure for Simplex Systems and for Duplex Systems.

For Simplex Systems

1.

Ensure that the Xerox 490/980 Color Continuous Feed Printing System is powered on and is 
connected to the PC-UI.

2.

On the left-side navigation pane of the Xerox 490/980 Color Continuous Feed Printing 
System PC-UI, select [
