HP LF Printing Knowledge Center Calibrate my printer Printer: HP Designjet Z3100 series Operating System: Mac OS X
The color calibration must be performed whenever: • A printhead is changed. • A new combination of paper type and print mode has been selected which has not been previously calibrated with the current set of printheads. • The environmental conditions change (for example, temperature or humidity). • You notice deterioration in the quality of your prints or there has been a large amount of printing since the last calibration.
4. You will see the calibration information for different paper types. Select the media that is loaded in the printer and select Continue. 5. A calibration test chart is printed, which contains patches of each ink used in your printer.
The printer will print and measure the linearization target and calculate the necessary correction factors to apply for consistent color printing on the paper type. It also calculates the maximum amount of each ink that can be applied to the paper. 6. Once the printer calibration is complete, select Done.
