Adjusting the color
balance
The printer can implement compensation
periodically using auto density compensation
mode, but implement this adjustment to adjust
the color balance watermarks in the intervals
where auto density compensation is insufîš¿cient.
Note
z
The densities of each color are mutually dependent, so it
is necessary to repeat the adjustments several times until
the correct color balance is reached.

Printing is disabled if [Local print] in the (optional) print
job accounting is set to [Disable printing] or [Disable color
printing].

The color matching pattern frames
are arranged in four vertical

The four vertical columns represent
from the top cyan, magenta,
yellow, and black, and are printed
as [Cyan], [Magenta], [Yellow] and
[Black].
The 11 horizontal rows represent
the color tone, and dotted lines
are printed under each text for
[Highlight], [Mid-Tone], and [Dark].

Use the print results for the color
matching pattern to adjust the color
balance watermarks.
If adjusting the color balance, use
the control panel to specify the shade
(Highlight, Dark, and Mid-Tone) of each
color.
This section explains the procedure for
slightly darkening the cyan highlights.
Adjust the watermarks for colors other
than cyan in the same way.
