- 104 -Adjusting Color with the Control PanelAdjusting Color Balance(Density)The printer can implement compensationperiodically using auto density compensationmode. However, you can implement thisadjustment when you want to adjust the graybalance of the halftones, which is not sufficientlyadjusted by the auto density compensation.Notez The densities of the colors are mutually dependent oneach other, so you will need to repeat adjustment severaltimes until the desired color balance is achieved.z The results of the basic [Base Color Tuning] are reflectedin the settings in [Fine Color Tuning]. Consequently, if the[Fine Color Tuning] are adjusted manually, these settingswill be reset, so be careful. However, the [Black Tuning]settings are not reset.1 Print a color tuning pattern.(1) Press the key.The numerical values input screenwill be displayed.(2) Press <3>, <0>, <2>, and pressthe button.(3) Check that [Execute] has beenselected, and press the button.(4) The color tuning pattern will be printed.2 Use the print results for the color tuningpattern to check the current colorbalance.(1) Check the area to be referencedusing “Base Color Tuning”.Check the numbers (A1,2 to O-1,2)of the pattern that seems themost similar to the adjacent CMYmixed colors part and single colorK part from among the patternsdistributed in the “Highlight”,“Mid-Tone”, or “Dark” areas.Memoz If the pattern that seems most similar to theadjacent CMY mixed colors part and single color Kpart in the “Highlight”, “Mid-Tone”, or “Dark” areasmatches the “Current” on the left of the color tuningpattern, the color balance is normal and does notrequire adjustment.3 Use the print results for the color tuningpattern to adjust the color balance.(1) Press the scroll button or .
