Color Calibration – Vertical
Vertical color calibration aligns the jets of the cartridges vertically to line up to the black cartridge and to each
other. The 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/Vert 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. If the horizontal lines for each color align
vertically 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 vertical head-to-
head test pattern.
4 Record the number for each and enter the value(s) if required by pressing the color and updating the
number.
These lines must align for each color.
