10. Print the calibration chart on your color printer.

11. Exit your image editing application.

Note:

To print images on more than one color printer, print the calibration

chart on each printer you’ll use. If you plan to print the image on a

service bureau’s color printer, have them print the calibration chart

on their printer so you can create a calibration profile for it.

Tip:

when you label the printed charts to help you identify which

printer produced them, don’t write on the chart itself. Write on

the back of the page.

Tip:

If you plan to print your image on a printing press

that

requires a four-color separation, you’ll need to ask your service

bureau or printer to create a color sample using your

calibration chart. You can then use

that

color sample to create

a calibration profile.

You are now ready to scan the printed calibration chart to

create a printer calibration profile.

Creating Printer Calibration Profiles

Follow these steps to create a calibration profile for each color

printer you want to use:

1. Start EPSON Scan! II, if necessary.
