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.

Observer Angle

Selects the observer angle.

UV Cut

Selects whether or not UV cut is used.

The Lab check box cannot be cleared.

Details

Pattern Size

Selects the pattern size of the color chart.
We recommend Larger when you want to prioritize the color measurement precision.

Drying Method

Choose Ventilation Fan to dry using the ventilation fan or Air Drying to dry without using the
ventilation fan.

Ventilation Fan

Configures the drying time and airflow for the ventilation fan.

Time

Configures the drying time for the ventilation fan for each pattern.
The number of lines that are dried at one time by the ventilation fan varies depending on the
size selected in Pattern Size.
As the time increases, the adhesion of the ink improves and the color tones become more sta-
ble.

Reduce Drying Time

Selecting this check box reduces the drying time.
Once the time configured in the Color Measurement Env. sheet in the Preferences dialog box
has elapsed, color measurement proceeds without performing any further drying with the venti-
lation fan.
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 imagePROGRAF
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 repeated for each
separated color chart. This makes it harder for the color charts to become scratched or soiled,
but also increases the time taken by the operation.
