Calibrator preferences
The settings in the Preferences window affect various aspects of the calibration procedure. You can set the default
calibration method and patch layout, the calibration time limit (expiration), and the default profiling method and
patch layout.
Note: You must have Administrator privileges to change preferences.
Calibration method and patch layout
For color printers, you can set the default measurement method and patch layout. The patch layouts that are
available for printing the calibration page vary by patch order and number of patches.
A greater number of patches yields more measurement data, which may produce better results. However, more
patches take longer to measure.
•
Sorted patches are printed on the page in the order of their hue and saturation levels.
•
Random , Randomized, or Unsorted patches are printed on the page in random order, to help compensate for
density inconsistencies on different areas of the page.
•
If the Fixed Pattern patch layout is available for ColorCal on your Fiery Server, it prints the color patches in a
randomized pattern that you can specify by number. This layout is useful if you want to reprint the same pattern
that you have printed before.
Scanner preparation for ColorCal
If you select ColorCal as the default calibration method, you can require scanner preparation by default before
calibrating the Fiery Server.
We recommend that you prepare the scanner after maintenance or service, or whenever the printer output has been
altered. If you do not select the Prepare scanner for ColorCal calibration option in Preferences, scanner
preparation is skipped.
Note: Scanner preparation affects ColorCal only. It does not prepare the printer for other types of scanning.
