The printer also has a function for notify-ing when executing color calibration is recommended, allowing you to efficiently reduce color variations by executingcolor calibration by using this function.Furthermore, using the Color Calibration Management Console (CCMC) color management utility included with theprinter makes it possible to execute color calibration from remote locations and to perform centralized management ofthe color calibration logs of multiple printers.Using the Media Configuration Tool (MCT) utility for adding media information that is included with the printer to importa custom media information file that contains a Calibration Target (*1) created on a printer (12-color model) with aSpectrophotometer Unit mounted makes it possible to execute color calibration on the paper you are using, deliveringefficient, low-cost color management. (Calibration link)*1: Standard values of the colors corrected by color calibrationFor a detailed explanation, see the following.Correcting Colors (Color Calibration) →P.826Stabilizing Colors (Color Calibration Execution Guide Settings) →P.828Correcting Colors (Color Calibration)You can perform the following operations depending on the number of printers you are using.• When operating with only one printerYou can correct for variations in the color tones on the printer you are using by executing color calibration.Color calibration can be executed from the printer control panel and the CCMC color management utility.For a detailed explanation, see the following.• Managing Colors Using Printer Sensors →P.829• When operating with multiple printersIf you have multiple printers, you can make the color tones of the printers the same by executing color calibrationon each of the printers.Managing Colors iPF8400User's GuideColor Management Color Calibration826
