Calibration
Characterization
Conversion
Colour Management factors: Calibration - turning of the device for opti-
mal performance and maintaining that ‘quality’. Characterization - how
colour gamuts are described for a device. Conversion - how an image is
translated from one device to the next.
CAP Cold Abnormal Purge (temp dropped to low for purging while in standby,
low power or sleep - won’t happen unless a hardware problem.)
CAT Customer Admin Tool
CBC Combined Board Controller (or Common Board Controller) - Linux
based.
CBE Chip Boundary Error - refers to possible mis-read of ink on drum if image
aligns with the chip boundary (every 54 ‘bits’).
CC Copy Centre
CC Copy Controller: controller for input and output and a large portion on the
image path.

CFR Confirmation To Receive
Chase Sheets A piece of paper that is run through the paper path without receiving an
image. The paper is passed through the roller/drum nip under the same
conditions as for an actual print, except that the drum maintenance cycle
is not performed. The chase sheet is run after a printed image and will
collect untransferred pixels that are left on the drum or transfix roller. The
amount of ink on the chase sheet can be measured to the quantify image
transfer efficiency.
