9. The next step is selecting the appropriate media profile. Just select the same entry

as shown in “Front Panel & Driver selection” table on page 3. This is the most important

step, since you are in fact determining a number of basic parameters for printer-paper

interaction. Among others, these include: ink limiting, maximum density and color transition

linearity thresholds. You can adjust these for your particular print paper by selecting the

applicable paper type.

10. The printer will then perform the color calibration (maximum density and linearity for each

ink) and color profiling (creating an ICC profile) for your custom paper, which will ensure the

best possible output quality.

11. Lastly, the HP Color Center will automatically install the profile in the computer that has

launched the process. If you are using your printer from another computer, remember to

synchronize papers before moving forward. The process is now complete.
