3. Printer-specific Adjustments
Ex.: • When printing on Windows is performed with the following options selected: PCL6, Image
Quality Type = Presentation, Halftone =Detail
> Change the values for Y: 05-8062, M: 05-8063, C: 05-8064 and K: 05-8065.

Set a value larger
than 128.
0 to 255 128
* Set the value in increments of approximately 20, while checking the printouts until the optimum
value is obtained.
* The value for [05] code for K (black) will affect black-and-white images (including text, lines and
photos) on the printout.
* The subcode varies according to the area where the density is adjusted. Refer to the table below
and set the subcode for the area to be adjusted.
Subcode Area where the density is adjusted
0 Low-density area
1 Medium-density area
2 High-density area
<Note> This adjustment changes the values set in the MFP. Therefore, it will affect every user who uses
the printer by connecting it to the MFP. After the adjustment, the values changed will be applied
to all printouts for the "Image Quality Type" and "Halftone" options. (For instance, if the value
for [05] code for PCL6 and Detail is changed, it will be applied to printing performed with
PCL6 and Halftone = "Detail" (or "Auto") selected.)
Carefully perform the adjustment, being aware that the image quality of all future printouts will
be changed, when printing out originals other than the one that is used for the adjustment.
If "Smooth" is selected from among the "Halftone" options, this adjustment will have no affect.
After adjusting the color balance, print and check the print image quality.
If further image quality adjustments are still necessary, use the next procedure.
