Calibration Utility for MACINTOSH
2–25
Part No. 8B9045 July 1996
Calibrating the Printer
You can now calibrate your printer by running the Visual Gray Balance
and Visual Linearity calibration procedures.
If you have a densitometer, you can run just the Densitometer calibration
procedure. You do not have to do Visual Gray Balance and Visual
Linearity calibrations. Refer to “Running a Densitometer Calibration”
on page 2–36.
Visual Gray Balance
Visual Gray Balance calibrates your printer so it produces a neutral gray.
The Calibration Utility allows you to select from three Visual Gray Balance
calibration prints. Each of these prints presents 49 numbered grayscale
clusters. Each cluster is made up of four boxes of varying densities. A Visual
Gray Balance calibration print looks similar to the following example.
The clusters on the three prints include a range of colors. Clusters in the
upper left corner will have a green hue. Clusters in the lower right corner
will have a magenta hue. Three different calibration prints allow you to
choose the degree of color shift.
