Color Calibration
Colors on different printers may differ depending on environmental changes and time-dependent changes. When
using multiple printers, colors may differ among printers of the same model. The color calibration function
measures the printing results, creates a correction value using the difference from the standard color (standard
calibration value), registers the correction value to the Printer PC, and corrects colors when printing.
The following two methods of color correction use different standard calibration values.
O When reducing the color differences from a standard printer
Uses the calibration file created by the standard printer.
O When reducing the color differences between multiple printers
Use the calibration file created by the main printer. You can select the main printer from your printers.
