Color management The process takes about 8-10 minutes and consists of the following steps. 1. A calibration test chart is printed, which contains patches of each ink used in your printer. 2. The test chart is allowed to dry for a period of time that depends on the paper type, so that the colors have time to stabilize. 3. The test chart is scanned and measured using the HP Embedded Spectrophotometer. 4. From the measurements made by the spectrophotometer, the printer calculates the necessary correction factors to apply for consistent color printing on that paper type. It also calculates the maximum amount of each ink that can be applied to the paper. ENWW Color calibration 39
