Color Correction (if needed)
Color Calibration

The output density for each color may vary depending on the environment the machine is in, such as temperature and humidity. Calibration helps you to improve the color density.

Note

• If you print using the Direct Print feature or the BR‑Script printer driver, you need to perform the calibration from the control panel. See Using the control panel.

• If you print using the Windows® printer driver, the driver will get the calibration data automatically if both Use Calibration Data and Get Device Data Automatically are on. See Advanced tab in the User’s Guide.

• If you print using the Macintosh printer driver, you need to perform the calibration using Status Monitor. After turning Status Monitor on, choose Color Calibration from Control menu. See Color Calibration in the User’s Guide.
