Oki Pro1040 - Adjusting Color Balance (Density)

Adjusting Color with the Control Panel
Adjusting Color Balance
(Density)
The printer can implement compensation
periodically using auto density compensation
mode. However, you can implement this
adjustment when you want to adjust the gray
balance of the halftones, which is not sufficiently
adjusted by the auto density compensation.
Note
z
The densities of the colors are mutually dependent on
each other, so you will need to repeat adjustment several
times until the desired color balance is achieved.

The results of the basic [Base Color Tuning] are reflected
in the settings in [Fine Color Tuning]. Consequently, if the
[Fine Color Tuning] are adjusted manually, these settings
will be reset, so be careful. However, the [Black Tuning]
settings are not reset.

Check the area to be referenced
using “Base Color Tuning”.
Check the numbers (A1,2 to O-1,2)
of the pattern that seems the
most similar to the adjacent CMY
mixed colors part and single color
K part from among the patterns
distributed in the “Highlight”,
“Mid-Tone”, or “Dark” areas.
Memo
z
If the pattern that seems most similar to the
adjacent CMY mixed colors part and single color K
part in the “Highlight”, “Mid-Tone”, or “Dark” areas
matches the “Current” on the left of the color tuning
pattern, the color balance is normal and does not
require adjustment.
