About color adjustments
In most cases, a printer calibration is sufficient to deliver the required color quality. Therefore it is
advised to
always
perform a printer calibration before you perform one of the procedures below.
About calibration
on page 170
(See )
Perform an
automatic color mismatch correction
when the print system does not execute the
color alignment in the correct way.
Reduce unwanted white edges between color planes with a
trapping preset
.
Perform a
manual shading correction
when you want to correct the shadings close to the edges
of the sheet.
Daily printer calibration and media family calibration result in calibrated CMYK curves. You can
perform a
manual adjustment of the CMYK curves on job level or on system level
.
Only use the
automatic correction color tone (ACCT)
function to correct slight color deviations in
the color tones when the calibration for maximum print quality does not deliver the required
color quality.
