Use color calibration to correct color tones on printing paper.
 Note
- Perform color calibration in the following cases:
- After initial printer installation
- If colors seem different from before, despite having the same environmental and printing conditions
- To ensure uniform color when printing on multiple printers (However, be sure to use the same version of firmware and printer driver and the same settings.)
- Before performing color calibration, perform print head cleaning or print head alignment. This improves the precision of color calibration.
If the remaining ink level for an ink tank is low, replace an ink tank.

-
Make sure that the power is turned on.
 Important
- In order to increase the color stability precision when executing color calibration, maintain a constant temperature and humidity environment each time within the range of temperatures of 59 to 86°F (15 to 30°C) and within the range of humidities of 40 to 60%.
Executing color calibration under various temperature and humidity conditions may prevent the printers from making the correct adjustments.
- Before color calibration, ensure the printer is not exposed to direct sunlight or other strong sources of light. If the printer is exposed to strong sources of light, correct adjustment may not be possible.

When the completion message appears, press the OK button.
Note
- To apply color calibration adjustment values to printing, set them in the printer driver or at the operation panel. However, if the values set in the printer driver and the operation panel differ, the setting of the printer driver is prioritized.
- To enable or disable the color calibration adjustment values, select Enable/disable adjustment values on the Color calibration screen.
- To clear color calibration adjustment values, select Reset adjustment values in the Color calibration screen.
