Setting Item Details
Pattern Size Selects the pattern size of the color chart.
We recommend Larger when you want to prioritize the color measurement preci-
sion.
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 depend-
ing on the size selected in Pattern Size.
As the time increases, the adhesion of the ink improves and the color tones become
more stable.
Reduce Drying Time Selecting this check box reduces the drying time.
Once the time configured in the Color Measurement Env. sheet in the Preferen-
ces dialog box has elapsed, color measurement proceeds without performing any
further drying with the ventilation 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 File
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.
