Tray 6 (High Capacity Feeder) – Optional: Media Type - Normal Bond,
Media Size -
Letter (8.5 x 11 inches)

Notes:

• Tray 5 is a manual feed tray located on the left side of the Xerox

DocuColor 12. (Tray 5 is not configured here.)

• Load paper so the watermark wording is face down in the tray.
• The DocuColor 12 can be set to disable automatic tray switching,

however the Matchprint Professional Server overrides this setting if
the job's parameters are set to Automatically Select the input
tray. Go to the Setting Job Parameters, Printer tab in the online
help or the user guide.pdf for more information.

Step 3. Printer Calibration

KPG recommends daily calibration and recalibration each time the printer is serviced.

Calibrate for Bond medias using the following Xerox Color Xpressions media. When
using supplied profiles and device links for premium medias, printer calibration must
use the Matchprint Co-Branded Xerox Color Laser Proofing Paper. This is the only

premium paper authorized by KPG and Xerox to accurately simulate Matchprint color.

The Color Profiles and Device Links supplied for normal, heavyweight, and extra
heavyweight bond were all created using the following Xerox media:

Normal Bond: Xerox Color Xpressions 24 lb., Bright White 96 paper.

Heavyweight Bond: Xerox Color Xpressions 60 lb., Bright White 96 paper.

Extra Heavyweight Bond: Xerox Color Xpressions 80 lb., Bright White 98

paper.

Important! If a media other than the recommended Xerox media is used, the
following error appears: “Warning! The media used for calibration appears to be
significantly different from the Normal Bond (or Heavyweight) media recommended
for used with this application. Results of the calibration on this media may not be

typical.”

Printer calibration can be performed internally by using the DocuColor 12 built-in
scanner or by using the Spectrostar Spectrocam, an external measurement device.
Both procedures are described in this section. If calibration is to be performed using
the Spectrocam, please go through the following Spectrocam Setup instructions
before beginning the calibration process.
If calibration is to be performed using the DocuColor 12 scanner, please skip to the
section titled, Calibration Procedure.
