Calibration 139
Choosing a Calibration Mode
The IC-304 print controller provides you with two calibration
modes:
• Off-the-glass: Uses the scanner platen to perform off-the-glass
calibration
• Device tool: Uses the GretagMacbeth® Eye-One®
spectrophotometer, which is a “high speed” color
measurement instrument, to report spectrophotometer and dot
data
Before you begin calibration, select the calibration mode in the
Preferences window, see "Calibration Device" on page 190.
Performing Off-the-glass Calibration
For best results:
• After you perform the first calibration, you print the
IQ_Test_(TAB/A3).pdf file from the D:\Sample_Files\(USA/
Europe)\IQ Files folder. Each time you calibrate, use this file as
a visual reference to verify that the printer has returned to its
start point.
• You calibrate both the printer and scanner at the same time. If
you only place the print chart on the platen, the printer is
calibrated. If you only place the scanner chart on the platen, the
scanner is calibrated
