Print-Quality Problems
Phaser® 7750 Color Laser Printer

Color Settings
The print-quality mode and TekColor
 
correction directly control the quality of your prints. You 
can change these settings in the printer driver or at the printer’s front panel.
Note
Driver settings override the printer’s front panel settings.
For more information on using color, go to 
Reference/Printing/Using Color
 on the User 
Documentation CD-ROM.
Color Calibration
Color calibration procedures adjust the printer for optimal color output. Color settings may 
need adjustment upon initial printer setup or when toner cartridges and imaging units are 
replaced. There are two procedures: Lighten/Darken Colors and Balance Colors. If the overall 
image appears either too light or dark, use the Lighten/Darken Colors procedure. If a finer 
adjustment of the primary colors (cyan, magenta, and yellow) is needed, continue with the 
Balance Colors procedure.
Lighten/Darken Colors
The Lighten/Darken Colors procedure increases or decreases all primary colors (cyan, 
magenta, yellow, and black) to produce a lighter or darker image. 
Caution
The Lightness Level affects all prints for all users. Changing this setting is generally not 
recommended.
All Colors Too Light or Too Dark 
Colors appear faded or too dark.
Calibrate the printer’s colors. Calibrating adjusts 
the printer’s color balance and lightness level.
