Managing Colors
Printer color management corrects for variations in color tones due to differences between printers and aging, and ob-
tains continuously stable corrected color tones.
The color tones of this printer can be corrected by executing color calibration. The printer also has a function for notify-
ing when executing color calibration is recommended, allowing you to efficiently reduce color variations by executing
color calibration by using this function.
Furthermore, using the Color Calibration Management Console (CCMC) color management utility included with the
printer makes it possible to execute color calibration from remote locations and to perform centralized management of
the color calibration logs of multiple printers.
Using the Media Configuration Tool (MCT) utility for adding media information that is included with the printer to import
a custom media information file that contains a Calibration Target (*1) created on a printer (12-color model) with a
Spectrophotometer Unit mounted makes it possible to execute color calibration on the paper you are using, delivering
efficient, low-cost color management. (Calibration link)
