Note: To keep the colors in your scanner consistent, you should perform color
calibration on a regular basis. Professional photographers, graphic designers or
others who require extremely precise color may wish to calibrate the scanner every
time it is used.
Positioning the Target
Proper positioning of the target on the scanner is important for successful calibration.
Incorrect positioning of the target will result in an unsuccessful calibration.
A. Positioning the Reflective Target
1. Flip and place the target on the scanner glass surface, making sure that the target
is positioned correct side up toward the front panel of the scanner, with its edge
firmly aligned against the U-shaped ruler.
2. Using the U-shaped ruler as a point of reference, adjust the target so that it is
positioned at the center of the scanner glass bed.
