Canon iPF8400SE Printer User Manual


 
Note
Select the optimal ink level by referring to the help.
If you cannot obtain sufficiently high quality printing no matter which maximum ink usage level you select,
use the Step 1: Select the standard paper dialog box to change the paper that is the basis of the cus-
tom paper to another paper.
Because this settings imposes an upper limit on the amount of ink used during printing, the printing result
might not change even if the level is changed depending on the image.
The color tone cannot be configured using the Media Configuration Tool. Although the color tone may
change when the maximum ink usage is changed, at this point you should select the optimal level by only
focusing on bleeding and scraping of ink. If the color tone needs to be adjusted, provide an ICC color
profile that matches the paper you are using, and select that ICC color profile in your software. For details
on how to specify the ICC profile in the printer driver, see "Matching Sheet ." P.154
Depending on the maximum ink usage setting, some of the print qualities in the printer driver may be-
come unselectable.

Configure Head Height and Vacuum Strength as
required and click the Next button.
Usually, these do not need to be set.
Important
If you set the Head Height lower than the automatically set height in parentheses ( ), check that the
printhead does not rub against the paper. (If the printhead rubs against the paper, there will be scratch-
es in the printing results.) If the printhead rubs against the paper, this can cause damage to the print-
head.
If you change the Vacuum Strength, check that the printhead is not rubbing against the paper. (If the
printhead rubs against the paper, there will be scratches in the printing results.) If the printhead rubs
against the paper, this can cause damage to the printhead.
For details on the Head Height and Vacuum Strength, refer to the help.
