Media Settings Check (optional)
This screen lets you print a "Media Setting Check" image at different driver media
settings (paper type, output resolution, etc.) to assure that the media setting
choice is optimal before printing a full profiling target for the printer. If the choice
is not optimal, then the resulting profile will not have the color range or detail it
would have from an optimal setting, and it's likely that prints with these settings
will have various kinds of cosmetic issues.
The basic idea is to print this image, with color management turned off in the
driver, the same way the target sheets will eventually be printed, so that you can
see how the same kind of color squares will eventually print with one or more
profiling target sheets.
An example of "not optimal" would be using the wrong paper type setting for a
non-standard paper type and getting too much ink on the paper, which can
produce irregular mottling and streaking of printed colors.
