System information

Print a test page
For color printers, you can print a test page that shows a side-by-side comparison of an image that was printed using
a particular calibration setting and the same image that was printed using the default calibration setting.
1
In Command Workstation Device Center, click the General tab, click Tools, and then click Manage under
Calibrate.
2
Select the calibration setting and click View Measurements.
3
Click Test Print.
Test page
For color printers, the test page lets you compare the current calibration data with the default calibration data for the
Fiery Server. The default calibration data is either the factory default data (for factory-supplied calibration settings)
or the initial measurement data (for custom calibration settings).
The test page contains color bars and images printed with the calibration data you are evaluating. There are two
versions of each image. The upper version shows the image printed with the default calibration data and the lower
version shows the image printed with the calibration data you are evaluating.
The color bars show a gradation from highlight to shadow for each colorant. The gradations should be smooth,
without sudden shifts in density, with the exception of the 100% K patch, which can appear darker as a result of the
black processing in color management.
If the test page does not appear satisfactory, it might be because the output profile associated with the calibration
setting is not appropriate for the paper and print settings.
Export measurement data
For color printers, you can export the measurement data for a particular calibration setting to a .cm0 file.
1
In Command WorkStation Device Center, click the General tab, click Tools, and then click Manage under
Calibrate.
2
Select the calibration setting and click View Measurements.
3
Click Export Measurements.
4
Browse to the file location, change the file name if desired, and click Save.
Reset measurement data
You can reset the measurement data for a particular calibration setting to the default data (either the factory default
data or, for a custom calibration setting, the initial measurement data). This option is not available if the current
measurement data is already the default data.
Reset measurement data for color printers
For color printers, there may be one or more calibration settings.
