Color Calibration – Horizontal
Horizontal color calibration aligns the jets in the cartridges horizontally to line up to the black cartridge and to each
other. This test provides a way to check and adjust for best printing results.
1 At the Control Panel, select Utility Menu/Calibration Menu/Color Calib Menu/Horiz Calib Test. A test
pattern prints.
Note: To correctly see the yellow color on the test pattern it is necessary to use a blue light source.
2 Examine the registration target in the Current Heads test pattern (see below). If the vertical lines for each
color align horizontally with the black lines (in registration), your calibration is correct. If not, go to the next
step to make additional adjustments.
3 Use an eye loupe and choose the best group of aligned bars for each set of colors in the horizontal head-
to-head test pattern (see below).
These lines must align for each color.
