HP Latex 360 Printer - Manual (Page 108)

Generating color profiles with the 360 printer
It is possible to create an ICC profile automatically for a given substrate and print mode, when adding or
editing a substrate. See
Add a new substrate on page 92 and Modify a substrate preset on page 91 .
After pressing the Create ICC profile button the following process takes place:
1. A profiling test chart is printed on the loaded substrate using the selected print mode.
2. The printed test chart is measured with the HP Embedded Spectrophotometer.
3. The color measurements are related to the target colorant values by the printer’s firmware to generate
the ICC profile.
4. The ICC profile is stored in the substrate preset for that print mode.
NOTE: Although color profiles obtained in one particular print mode can be reused when printing with other
print modes, the most accurate color reproduction can only be achieved if profiling is made with exactly the
same print mode that is used for printing. For example, if you use a color profile obtained with a 12-pass
standard print mode, you may see some color difference when you use it to print with an 8-pass speed print
mode.
TIP: To test the just-created ICC profile on the internal test image, press the Print Test Image button.
The following image is printed with the just-created ICC profile applied to it.
