Calibrate the scanner
Introduction
To maintain a consistent quality of the output, the Océ TCS400 scanner
operator panel has a calibration wizard.
When to do
Use the scanner calibration wizard to get consistent output of high quality.
Between 2 scanner calibrations, the automatic scanner adjustment stabilizes
the output quality. The automatic scanner adjustment keeps the scanner
independent of changes in the environment.
Use the scanner calibration wizard to start a scanner calibration when the scan
quality decreases.
Use the scanner calibration wizard when the following error message appears
on the screen.
■ 'Unable to align the cameras. Please calibrate the scanner.'
Before you begin
■ Turn on the scanner at least one hour before you do the scanner calibration
The scanner needs one hour to warm-up for optimal calibration.
■ Clean the glass plate of the scanner
(see ‘Clean the scan area’ on page 197)
■ Clean the white platen of the scanner
(see ‘Clean the scan area’ on page 197)
