System information

Print a calibration page
When you print a calibration page, first specify the calibration setting (color printers), paper source, and
measurement method.
•
For color printers, if the calibration setting that you want is not selectable, it is probably because you started
calibration for a selected job. When you start calibration for a specific job, only the calibration setting that is used
to print the job is shown.
The recommended paper and the date and time of the most recent calibration measurements associated with the
selected calibration setting are displayed. If no date and time are given, the Fiery Server has not been calibrated
(for this calibration setting).
•
Be sure the paper source contains paper that is appropriate for the calibration setting. If a warning appears under
the Paper Source setting, it might be because the paper source does not match the calibration setting. You can
either select a different calibration setting or a different paper source.

Using the spectrophotometer to measure patches
You use the spectrophotometer to manually measure color patches.
Using the spectrophotometer consists of these tasks:
•
Calibrate the spectrophotometer.
•
Measure the calibration page using the spectrophotometer.
•
View and save the measurements.
Calibrator supports several types of spectrophotometer, including:
•
EFI ES-1000
•
EFI ES-2000
•
X-Rite i1Pro
•
X-Rite i1Pro2
Other types of measurement instruments may be supported by the printer connected to the Fiery Server.
When the EFI ES-2000 or X-Rite i1Pro2 is used in ES-1000 compatibility mode, its indicator lights may not operate.
On-screen messages indicate the state of the spectrophotometer.
