6 6-1 Chapter 6: Color Calibration Understanding calibration Calibrating your Fiery SI ensures consistent, reliable color output. You can calibrate the Fiery SI in several ways: • Scan a page from the copier glass and use automatic calibration (AutoCal™). • Connect a densitometer to your Fiery SI and calibrate it from the Control Panel. • Connect a densitometer to your Macintosh or IBM PC-compatible and download calibration to your Fiery SI with the Fiery XJ Print Calibrator.
6 6-2 Color Calibration How calibration works Success in obtaining satisfactory print quality from a digital color printer depends on many factors. Among the most important are establishing and maintaining optimal toner densities. Density is a measure of the light absorbed by a surface. The saturation of toner colors, which affects output densities from your copier, is affected by such variables as room humidity and service settings, and also tends to drift over time.
6 6-3 Understanding calibration • DIC—Japanese press standard. • Euroscale—European press standard. • Linear—Results in output that divides the maximum measured density for each color into equal density steps to provide an even distribution of tones over the copier’s density range. When you linearize the Fiery SI, the entire measured density range in each color channel is divided into equal steps.

C C-1 Troubleshooting This section provides some troubleshooting guidelines should a problem arise. If you are still unable to resolve a problem, contact your authorized service/support center. Appendix C: Troubleshooting Basic troubleshooting tips There are some basic situations that can cause a variety of problems. Before you look for a specific problem, use the tips in this list. 1. Check the power and cables for your Fiery SI, copier, and computer. 2.
C C-2 Troubleshooting General printing problems If this happens: The Fiery SI doesn’t appear in the Macintosh Chooser’s list of printers Try this: 1. On the Macintosh, make sure that the correct zone is selected and that AppleTalk is active. AppleTalk must be active. The Fiery SI may be in a different zone from the one that’s selected. (If your network doesn’t have zones, this is not applicable.) Print the Configuration page from the Control Panel to view the correct AppleTalk zone. 2.
C C-3 Troubleshooting If this happens: Try this: You cannot connect to a Fiery SI from a Fiery XJ utility chooser • You cannot select or view one of the queues • Have your system administrator enable the queue in Setup on the Fiery SI Control Panel. Only connections enabled in Setup are available for selection and display in the Fiery XJ Spooler. You cannot open the Fiery SI with the Chooser in a Fiery SI Windows utility • If you are using Windows 3.
C C-4 Troubleshooting If this happens: Fiery SI doesn’t respond to a Print command Try this: • Has someone disconnected the copier by selecting Suspend Printing? If the Fiery SI system administrator or another user has selected Suspend Printing on the Fiery SI Control Panel to interrupt printing (so that someone can make a color copy, for example), your print job will not resume until someone selects Resume Printing from the Functions menu on the Control Panel.
C C-5 Troubleshooting If this happens: Message requests a paper size that you don’t have Try this: • Cancel the job and do one of the following: If you are printing a PostScript file, set the Convert Paper Sizes setting in Printer Setup on the Control Panel to convert the job to the paper size you do have. You can do this to convert between US and metric paper sizes. See the Administrator Guide for information.
C C-6 Troubleshooting If this happens: Jobs sent to the parallel port do not print Try this: • Increase the parallel “Port Timeout in Seconds” on the Fiery SI Control Panel • On the Fiery SI Control Panel, change the Ignore EOF Character setting. If you are printing ASCII format PostScript only, set Ignore EOF Character to No. If you are printing Binary format PostScript, set it to Yes. • If you print using the DOS copy command, make sure to use the /b option when printing binary files.
C C-7 Troubleshooting Problems with print quality . If this happens: Try this: Print settings for your job output do not match the settings you gave • You get poor printing results • Make sure that you did not override the setting for the job in another place. For information about options and overrides, see Appendix D "Setting Job Overrides.
C C-8 Troubleshooting If this happens: Color output is incorrect Try this: • Print the Configuration page and check the calibration information. The copier may need to be recalibrated because it has been too long since it was calibrated or because it is using a different target.
C C-9 Troubleshooting Problems with calibration If you are calibrating from the Fiery SI, check the Control Panel for an error message. If this happens: Try this: After calibration, the toner density for a particular color is too high • Open the Edit Calibration window and adjust the maximum density for that color. A measurement is out of range • Make sure you have properly zeroed your densitometer.
C C-10 Troubleshooting If this happens: Error message appears on control panel Try this: • The numbered error messages (Error Type: 8 and Error Type: 11) have the following meanings: Error Type 8 Description—Page did not scan, incorrect page on copier glass. Action—Make sure that you are using the AutoCal file and that it is placed correctly on the copier glass. If you still get this message, try scanning a page with Fiery XJ Scan to verify that the scan feature is working.
C C-11 Troubleshooting Fiery XJ Downloader problems If his happens: You can’t print an EPS file using the Fiery XJ Downloader Try this: • Try printing using the “Showpage” option in the Download PostScript File dialog box. The Showpage (after EPS file) option adds a “showpage” PostScript language command at the end of the print job. Certain applications omit this necessary PostScript language command when they generate EPS files.
C C-12 Troubleshooting Fiery XJ Scan problems If this happens: Fiery XJ Scan does not appear in the Adobe Photoshop Acquire menu Fiery XJ Scan images are wrong Try this: • Make sure that the plug-in is installed correctly in the Photoshop Plug-ins folder. For information on where to install software, see Getting Started. • In Photoshop, choose Preferences/Plug-ins from the File menu and verify that the Plugins folder selected corresponds to the folder containing the Fiery XJ Scan.
C C-13 Troubleshooting If this happens: Fiery XJ Scan does not let you scan at full resolution Try this: • Click Prescan and then set the resolution. The Fiery SI scans at full resolution for an area that is about 25 square inches. When you select an area smaller than about 25 square inches, the Max value increases in the dialog box, and you can set a higher resolution.
