4.6 Using Spectrophotometer
(SPECTROVUE VM-10)
The optional spectrophotometer (SPECTROVUE VM-10) can be attached to print and measure the color
target.
Use SPECTROVUE VM-10-compliant RIP software when performing color calibration or color
profiling for the printer to achieve accurate color printing.
Follow the instructions below.
