HP (Hewlett-Packard) 2600n Printer User Manual


 
Calibrating the printer
The printer automatically calibrates at various times. You can adjust the calibration settings
by using the HP Toolbox.
Environmental differences or aging print cartridges might cause fluctuations in image
density. The printer accounts for this with image stabilization control. The printer
automatically calibrates at various times to maintain the highest level of print quality. You
can also request a calibration by using the HP Toolbox.
The printer does not interrupt a print job to calibrate. It waits until the job is complete before
calibrating or cleaning. While the printer is calibrating, it pauses printing for the time that is
required to complete the calibration.
