Copy Image Correction

Return to Overview

This is a precise copy image recalibration for the machine's gradation, density, and color settings. The procedure involves making a test print and placing it on the platen glass for scanning. Once this is complete, the machine automatically corrects the irregularities.


Remark
  • For an accurate adjustment, do not use colored paper, transparencies, or labels.
    It is recommended that you use plain white paper when performing Copy Image Correction.
  • If you set <Color> in <Paper Type> of <Paper Settings>, Copy Image Correction cannot be performed. To perform a Copy Image Correction, set <Paper Type> other than <Color>. For instructions on how to set the paper type, see "Setting Paper Size and Type."
  • Make sure that you place the test prints properly. Accurate recalibrations of the gradation, density, and color settings of the machine cannot be made if the test prints are not scanned correctly.
  • A test print is output by the machine during this adjustment. Make sure that a sufficient supply of A4 or LTR paper is loaded into the machine before starting this procedure.
  • Test prints are not counted as part of the copy or print total page counts.
  • It takes approximately two and a half minutes to perform the Copy Image Correction.
