Adjusting Gradation
1W2X-09W
Gr
adation 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. There are three types of
adjustments: "Full Adjust" for accurate adjustment, "Quick Adjust" for simple adjustment, and "Adjust Copy Image" for
gradation adjustment, especially for copying.

Adjustments may not be performed effectively if ther
e is not sucient toner cartridge remaining. Check the
amount remaining in the toner cartridges. If the amount remaining in the toner cartridge is low, it is
recommended that you replace the toner cartridge.

Full Adjust
This adjustment optimizes r
eproducibility 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. To make a full adjustment, repeat the operation, "print out the adjustment image and scan it,"
multiple times. Note that you cannot perform this adjustment while performing some functions, including, scanning,
and printing.
