About the printer ACC
It is difficult to keep constant printing density due to the environment of the machine, individual differences between devices, and the passage of time. The printer ACC reads the current printing density using the scanner, and then compares the result with the time when it was in a normal state, and makes the printing density close to the normal state.
Issues possibly solved by the printer ACC
[*]When the printed image looks strongly red, blue, or yellow because the density of the cyan, magenta, and yellow are not balanced.
Replacement and Adjustment
- When the printed image looks too dark or light.
Issues cannot be solved by the printer ACC
The tone differences from other types of machine or machines of other manufactures cannot be solved by the printer ACC. The tone differences from the machines of other manufactures occur due to the differences in color reproduction caused by the difference in the engine and color profile specifications so it may not be solved even after performing the printer ACC. Refer to page 4-228 "Adjustment by Changing the Machine’s Profile Setting" for the color tone differences from the other types of the machine.
- When the printed image looks too dark or light.

Brightness
- Decreasing the brightness makes the printed image darker and increasing it makes the printed image fainter.
- Decrease the value to make the printed image darker and increase it to make the printed image fainter.
- If you increase the value too much, overexposure of bright areas may occur.
- If you decrease the value too much, underexposure of dark areas may occur
- Can be specified using the PCL/PS drivers.
Contrast - Increasing the contrast makes bright areas brighter and dark areas darker.
- Decreasing the contrast makes bright areas darker and dark areas brighter.
- Increase the value to make the printed image clearer and decrease it to prevent overexposure of bright areas and underexposure of dark areas.
- If you increase the value too much, overexposure of bright areas and underexposure of dark areas may occur.
- If you decrease the value too much, the printed image may become unclear.
- Can be specified using the PCL/PS drivers.
Replacement and Adjustment
Saturation - Increasing the saturation makes the printed image more vivid.
- Decreasing the saturation makes the printed image closer to the neutral color (gray).
- If you increase the value too much, it may lower the gradation, resulting in a difficulty to distinguish colors.
- The printer’s color gamut is limited, so even if you increase the value, it may not make any difference.
- Can be specified using the PCL driver only.
RGB Adjustment (Adjust Each Color)
When using the PCL driver, adjust the tone (color gamut) by this method. - Increasing "Red" makes "M" and "Y" more vivid and "C" less so.
- Decreasing "Red" makes "M" and "Y" less vivid and "C" more so.
- Increasing "Green" makes "C" and "Y" more vivid and "M" less so.
- Decreasing "Green" makes "C" and "Y" less vivid and "M" more so.
- Increasing "Blue" makes "C" and "M" more vivid and "Y" less so.
- Decreasing "Blue" makes "C" and "M" less vivid and "Y" more so.
When using the PS driver, adjust the tone (color gamut) by this method.
Adjustment Examples
The following shows adjustment examples. Be sure to check the printed image when changing values.
If the printed image is dark:
Increase the brightness by 20.
If the printed image is faint:
Decrease the brightness by 20.
Replacement and Adjustment
If the printed image is too bluish:
Increase "Red" or "Magenta" by 20.
If the printed image is too reddish:

[*]ADJUSTMENT BY CHANGING THE MACHINE’S PROFILE SETTING
You can change the printer’s profile setting by specifying a bit switch in SP mode.
- By changing the profile setting, you can change the tone of all images printed by the machine’s printer function.
- By changing the profile setting, you can make the tone (image gamut) of the printed image similar to that of another model. However, due to factors such as the image gamut difference between different models, individual differences, and ageing of components, you may not achieve exactly the same tone.
Procedure to Change the Profile Setting- Enter the printer SP mode.
- Change the values of bit switches with the following SP numbers.

Judgment for Type of Color Registration Error
In the following diagrams, solid lines represent "K" and dotted lines indicate any of "C", "M" or "Y".
- Pattern 1
This is a case in which there is a shift in the sub-scan direction at the leading edge of the paper. The following diagram shows "C", "M" or "Y" lines closer to the leading edge than "K" lines.
- Pattern 2
This is a case in which there is a shift in the sub-scan direction at the trailing edge of the paper. The following diagram shows "C", "M" or "Y" lines farther away from the leading edge than "K" lines.
- Pattern 3
This is a case in which a color registration error is found in the main-scan direction and size of the error is the same at the left, center and right.
- Pattern 4
This is a case in which a color registration error is found in the main-scan direction and the size of the error is different at the left, center and right. For "M", the largest error will be at the right, followed by the center and then the left. For "C" or "Y", the order will be reversed. This is because the writing direction of the laser beam for "K" and "M" is different from "C" and "Y". Case "M"
