Calibrate the MFP
The MFP automatically self-calibrates, but calibration settings can be manually adjusted by using the
HP ToolboxFX.
Environmental differences or aging print cartridges might cause fluctuations in image density. The MFP
accounts for this with image stabilization control. The MFP automatically calibrates at various times to
maintain the highest level of print quality. Also request a calibration by using the HP ToolboxFX.
The MFP does not interrupt a print job to calibrate. It waits until the job is complete before calibrating or
cleaning. While the MFP is calibrating, it pauses printing for the time that is required to complete the
calibration.
NOTE This calibration process calibrates the printer. It does not calibrate the image scanner.
