Correcting the Gradation

Gradation refers to the dark to light continuum of shades of a color. The more shades in the gradations of colors that are printed, the

more natural printouts seem. If color reproducibility becomes poor and the density and brightness of printouts differs markedly from the

originals, perform the appropriate auto adjustment. Before adjusting the gradation, check the remaining toner level. Gradation

adjustments require significant toner (

Checking Toner Level). There are three types of adjustments: Full Adjust, Quick Adjust,

and

Adjust Copy Image.

Fewer shades in the gradations

More shades in the gradations

NOTE

Adjustments may not be performed effectively if there is not sufficient toner.

This adjustment optimizes reproducibility for color printing. When the machine performs full adjustment, it obtains information to

optimize color reproducibility. The machine maintains this information until the next time you perform full adjustment. For making full

adjustment, an adjustment image will be printed twice and scanned twice. Note that you cannot perform this adjustment while

performing some functions, including, scanning, and printing.
