Spectrophotometer-Based Calibration
There are two methods provided for entering the calibration data values measured by a
spectrophotometer. The first method allows you to use PhaserMatch or PhaserCal software to
control and communicate with a spectrophotometer that is connected to your computer. The
second method allows you to manually import LAB measured data.
The spectrophotometers that can be controlled by PhaserMatch or PhaserCal software are:
■ GretagMacbeth Spectrolino/SpectroScan
■ GretagMacbeth Eye-One System
■ X-Rite DTP-41
■ X-Rite DTP-70
■ X-Rite PULSE
■ X-Rite Digital Swatchbook
■ SpectroStar SpectroCam
Note: PhaserMatch and PhaserCal software do not support any densitometers for performing
a color calibration procedure.
PhaserMatch and PhaserCal software walks you through a series of steps that generate and
download the calibration data to a printer.
To perform a spectrophotometer-based calibration:
1. Launch the PhaserMatch or PhaserCal application.
2. Click the Calibrate Printer button in the main screen.
3. Click the Spectrophotometer-Based Calibration button in the main Calibrate Printer
screen
4. Select a device from the list of supported spectrophotometers or select Manually Enter
