HP LF Printing Knowledge Center Calibrate my printer Printer: HP Designjet Z6100 series Operating System: Windows
Color calibration enables your printer to produce consistent colors with the specific printheads, inks and paper type you are using, and under your specific environmental conditions. The color calibration must be performed whenever: • A printhead is changed. • A new combination of paper type and print mode is loaded which has not been previously calibrated with the current set of printheads. • The environmental conditions change (for example, temperature or humidity).
. You will see the calibration information for different paper types: • 5. Paper Name: Select the media that is loaded in the printer and you want to calibrate. Select Next.
6. A calibration test chart is printed, which contains patches of each ink used in your printer. The printer will print and measure this linearization target and calculates 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.
7. Once the printer calibration is complete, select Done. NOTE: You can check the color calibration status of the currently loaded paper at any time from: • The front panel: Paper menu > View loaded paper > View paper details. • The HP Color Center.
