About Exact Color Calibration

In addition to the regular controller calibration (refer to About Controller Calibration), measure the accuracy and check the Gray Step (gray balance) measurement result as necessary. Based on the color difference ΔE for gray color standard state in the color space, execute the advanced controller calibration (Exact Color) wizard as necessary.

The following two methods are available to perform Exact Color.

  • Manual adjustment by using Color Centro

  • Automatic adjustment by using the touch panel

Meaning and Purpose of Advanced Controller Calibration (Exact Color)

While the regular controller calibration (refer to About Controller Calibration) adjusts the output density of gradation for each C, M, Y, and K colors, the advanced controller calibration (Exact Color) adjusts mixed colors (mixture of 2 or 3 colors and gray balance) for enhanced color reproduction accuracy. For details, refer to Overview of Calibration.

When to perform

  • Any time (If the accuracy measurement result presented a greater ΔE value (color difference), etc. than the preferred value)
