Printed colors are not what you expected

In general

Select another Color Correction option in a supported driver and print your image again; refer to page 4-24 for more information on color correction.

If you are not using a supported driver and are sharing the printer with other users on a network, another user may have changed the printer’s color adjustment setting. Refer to page 7-36 for more information on sharing a network printer.

If you use the driver’s Use Printer Setting option and printed colors are not what you expected, check the following:

Check the printer’s color density settings in the front panel Calibrate Colorsmenu. You may need to adjust one or all of the colors. Refer to “Controlling color density” on page 5-2 for details.

A selection may have been made in the TekColor Correction menu on the printer’s front panel. These settings change the printer’s color correction setting.

A color correction utility file may have been downloaded to the printer. These files change the printer’s color correction setting.

Refer to “Color correction descriptions” on page 5-20 for details on how these settings affect prints made from a driver.
