Your printer was calibrated at the factory to ensure that it operates with the greatest accuracy in normal environmental conditions.

Before recalibrating the printer, you should always use the image quality print to verify that you do actually have image quality problems caused by media advance problems. Note: the accuracy calibration applies only to the media type currently selected in the front panel. Other media types will keep their original media advance settings.
