Reduce Drying Time

Specify a time that offers sufficient drying by air drying in the Preferences dialog
box. If you perform color measurement while the ink is not dry, the measurements
may not be correct.
The Preferences dialog box is displayed when you click Preferences in the image-
PROGRAF Color Calibration Management Console
menu.
If the number of patterns is small, drying will finish in a shorter amount of time than
the time configured in the Preferences dialog box. If this happens, the drying time
will not be reduced even if the Reduce Drying Time check box is selected.

Airflow

Selects the airflow of the ventilation fan.

Air Drying

Sets the period between the color chart being printed and the color measurement
starting.
If the Dry Separated Chart check box is selected, printing and air drying are repea-
ted for each separated color chart. This makes it harder for the color charts to be-
come scratched or soiled, but also increases the time taken by the operation.
If the Dry Separated Chart check box is clear, printing and air drying the color chart
are performed once. This reduces the time taken by the operation, but may scratch
or soil the end of the color chart and paper. However, this does not affect the color
measurement results.

Position of Ventilation Fan

If you are using paper that has a tendency to curl or paper that does not dry easily,
select High so that the paper does not come into contact with the paper presser.
Note that when High is selected, we recommend that you set the Time longer and
the Airflow stronger compared with when Standard is selected because of the larg-
er distance between the ventilation fan and paper.
