Registering Color Sensor Adjustment Data for Each Paper Type
Register the data measured by a spectrophotometer to the machine and create color sensor adjustment data for each paper type. Perform the following steps:
Set the paper type and screen for the color sensor adjustment data for each paper type, and then output the chart from the machine.
For details, refer to Printing the Chart.
Measure the colorimetric data for the chart using a spectrophotometer.
Register the colorimetric data to the machine, and then register the color sensor adjustment data for each paper type.
There are two ways to register the colorimetric data.
- Registering colorimetric data using a USB flash drive->Registering Colorimetric Data Using a USB Flash Drive
- Registering colorimetric data via Web->Registering Colorimetric Data via Web

Registering Colorimetric Data Using a USB Flash Drive
Read two or more sheets of charts output in accordance with the procedure of Printing the Chart by using the spectrophotometer i1-iSisXL, i1-Pro or i1-Pro2, or FD-5 BT and then create colorimetric data.
Set the path [/C2070/ADJUST_DATA] to a USB flash drive, and save the colorimetric data in the lowest folder.
The measured data cannot be saved with any path other than that specified. Be sure to set the designated path to save the data. Also, be sure to save all the data created from multiple charts together.
Connect the USB flash drive, in which the colorimetric data is stored, to the USB port of the machine.
This port is available for low-power devices only. Please provide an external supply of power for devices that require a large amount of power.
USB flash drive formatted in FAT or FAT 32 file system can be detected on the machine. USB flash drive with the U3 platform or security feature cannot be used.
Press the [USB Flash Drive] on the [Each Paper Type Color Sensor Adjustment] screen.
The multiple colorimetric data saved in the USB flash drive in step 2 is displayed on the [Colored Data File Select] screen.
Select one file.
The machine starts loading all the related files.
If the data cannot be loaded, check that the path is properly set to the USB flash drive. If you fail to save all the data created from the charts, an error screen is displayed. Check the files to recover.
Press [OK] on the [Colored Data File Select] screen.
The screen returns to the [Each Paper Type Color Adjustment List] screen.
Press [Return].
The screen returns to the [Color Density Control] screen.
Registering Colorimetric Data via Web
To register colorimetric data in the machine via Web, configure a setting to access to Web Utilities from the computer connected to the machine via the network.
Do not turn the power off or on during this work.
Read two or more sheets of charts output in accordance with the procedure of Printing the Chart by using the spectrophotometer i1-iSisXL, i1-Pro or i1-Pro2, or FD-5 BT and then create colorimetric data.
Access to Web Utilities (URL shown below) from the computer connected to the machine via the network.
For Image Controller IC-603: http://a.b.c.d:30091/
For Image Controller IC-313: http://a.b.c.d/
For Image Controller IC-417: http://a.b.c.d/Enter the IP address of the machine into a.b.c.d.
Click [Machine Manager Setting], and enter the administrator ID and password.
Click on [Color Measuring data Input].
Enter the file name for colorimetric data into [File Name], click [Browse] on the side of the file path, and select the colorimetric data saved in the computer.
If there are multiple colorimetric data items, repeat this procedure.
Click [Upload].
Colorimetric data is saved in the machine.
Press [Each Paper Type Color Adj.] on the [Color Density Control] screen to display the [Each Paper Type Color Adjustment List] screen.
Press [Engine Archived Data].
Multiple sets of colorimetric data registered via Web is displayed on the [Colored Data File Select] screen.
Select one file.
The machine starts loading all the related files.
If you fail to save all the data created from the charts, an error screen is displayed. Check the files to recover.
Press [OK] on the [Colored Data File Select] screen.
The screen returns to the [Each Paper Type Color Adjustment List] screen.
Press [Return].
The screen returns to the [Color Density Control] screen.
If you are registering the colorimetric data via Web using FD-S2w, some procedures are different from the ones listed below (Steps 2 to 6).
For details, refer to the user's guide supplied with FD-S2w.
How to Delete Color Sensor Adjustment Data for Each Paper Type
