HP (Hewlett-Packard) Z6600 Photo Printer User Manual


 
NOTE: Color calibration is performed automatically after you add a new paper type. However, color
profiling requires the creation of a profile externally.
Color calibration
Your printer uses color calibration to produce consistent colors with the specific printheads, inks, and paper
type that you are using, and in your particular environmental conditions. After color calibration, you can
expect to get identical prints from any two different printers that are situated in different geographical
locations.
Calibration should be done in any of the following circumstances:
Whenever a printhead is replaced
Whenever a new paper type is introduced that has not yet been calibrated with the current set of
printheads
Whenever a certain amount of printing has been done since the last calibration
Whenever the printer has been turned off for a long period of time
Whenever the environmental conditions (temperature and humidity) change significantly
The printer usually reminds you with an alert whenever you need to perform color calibration, unless you
have disabled the alerts. However, if the environmental conditions change, the printer will not be aware of it.
