Tell Me About Color Calibration
Color calibration improves color consistency between prints, and from one printer to another. The printer calibrates color by printing a ‘calibration strip’ and then scanning the strip with a
After you have done the calibration, the calibration data is stored in your printer and is used the next time you print with the same type of paper loaded and the same print quality selected.
You must perform the color calibration procedure…
•When you install one or more new printheads
•When you use a new paper type/print quality combination for the first time
•Whenever environmental conditions change (for example, temperature or humidity)
•Whenever you note a deterioration in the quality of prints
Depending on the amount of use made of the printer, we recommend that you recalibrate it every two weeks or so.
To perform a color calibration, refer to “How Do I Perform a Color Calibration?” on page 3.
