Default Setting (System Menu) Auto Color Correction This setting allows you to adjust the detection level used by the machine to determine whether the original is color or black and white during Auto Color Mode.

Use the procedure below to set the Auto Color Detection Level. 1 Press the System Menu key. 2 Press [ ] > [Adjustment/Maintenance] > [ ] > [Change] of Auto Color Correction. 3 Press one of keys [1] to [5] (Color - B & W) to set the detection level. 4 Press [OK]. Color Registration When first installing the machine or moving it to a new location, color drift during printing may occur. Use this function to correct the color position of each of cyan, magenta and yellow to resolve color drift. Normal registration and detailed settings are available for Color Registration. Color drift can be largely corrected through normal registration. However, if it is not resolved or to perform more detailed settings, use the detailed settings. NOTE: To perform color registration, verify that either 11 × 8 1/2" or A4 paper is loaded into a cassette. IMPORTANT: Before performing color registration, be sure to perform color calibration (see page 8-64). If color drift remains, perform color registration.By performing color registration without performing color calibration, the color drift will be resolved once, however, it may cause the serious color drift later. Normal Registration Follow the steps below to correct normal color drift. 1 Press the System Menu key. 2 Press [ ], [Adjustment/Maintenance], [ ] and then [Next] of Color Registration. 3 Press [Print] of Chart.
