Calibrating the Printer

You can now calibrate your printer by running the Visual Gray Balance
and Visual Linearity calibration procedures.

If you have a densitometer, you can run just the Densitometer calibration
procedure. You do not have to do Visual Gray Balance and Visual
Linearity calibrations. Refer to “Running a Densitometer Calibration”
on page 1–40.

Visual Gray Balance

Visual Gray Balance calibrates your printer so it produces a neutral
gray. The Calibration Utility allows you to select from three Visual Gray
Balance calibration prints. Each of these prints presents 49 numbered
grayscale clusters. Each cluster is made up of four boxes of varying
densities. A Visual Gray Balance calibration print looks similar to the
following example.

249

The clusters on the three prints include a range of colors. Clusters in the
upper left corner will have a green hue. Clusters in the lower right corner
will have a magenta hue. Three different calibration prints allow you to
choose the degree of color shift.
