Visual Linearity

Visual Linearity calibrates your printer so it produces the correct shading
(lightness/darkness).

Use the Linearity Reference Card to select a cluster for each of the six
density ranges. Visual Linearity calibration prints look similar to the
following examples.

Using the Linearity Reference Card

The Linearity Reference Card is included with the Calibration Utility.
Use this Reference Card for performing Visual Linearity calibrations.
Following are instructions for using the Reference Card.

1. Lay the Linearity Reference Card with the name at the top on the first

row of the calibration print.

NOTE: It may not be possible to find a cluster in which all six gray levels

exactly match the Linearity Reference Card. Select the cluster
that appears to be the closest match.

2. Slide the Linearity Reference Card across each patch in the row

and determine which of the nine patches in the row most closely
matches the darkness on the Reference Card.

NOTE: Match the darkness on the Reference Card, not the color.

3. Repeat step 2 for each row on the calibration print.
