Calibrating the Scanner

Calibrate the scanner if colors appear in areas that should be white, or colors of the
scanned image and the original vary a lot. This allows you to adjust and compensate for
variations that can occur in the optical component over time by its nature.

The following describes how to calibrate the scanner:

1. Insert the special calibration sheet face down into the page feed slot of the

scanner. Align the calibration sheet to the calibration alignment mark on the
scanner.

Attention

Please insert the special calibration sheet included with the scanner.
Alternatively you may also use any plain white sheet of paper sized
in Letter size (8.5” x 11.69”) instead; however, the calibration effect
may be less good than the special calibration sheet.
