Stock Management and Calibration

3-8

Color Management Guide

•

Use this workflow when you are not concerned about small 
amounts of whiteness differences on stocks.

•

This workflow provides simple and very quick setup.

•

It is simple to maintain consistent color using this workflow 
because only one calibration applies to all stocks all the time.

•

You, the customer, never need to go into Color Manager; 
using this workflow, you need only to use the Printer 
Manager.

•

Use this workflow if you want to avoid ineligible jobs found in 
the named model.

1. Open Printer Manager/Paper Trays and select a tray (e.g, 

tray 1).

2. Select the desired stock size, type, coating etc. and close. 

Leave the name Unspecified.

3. The same should be done for the other trays with physical 

stock attributes selected and name remaining Unspecified.

•

In Printer Manager: Paper Trays, right click on any tray/stock 
and select [calibration]. Perform the calibration process.

•

You have now calibrated and loaded all stocks and trays on 
the system. Any incoming job that matches an attribute of the 
stock, such as the size, pulls from the appropriate tray.

•

Any Unspecified stocks are always placed in the default 
group and use the default group’s calibration and destination 
profiles.

•

The default group can be changed and be used thereafter by 
any and all Unspecified stocks on the system.

This set-up utilizes three stock groups to represent all the stock 
you use. Three Xerox created groups represent Bright White, 
White, and Other substrates.   

The purpose of this set-up, as compared to the Unspecified 
workflow, is to account for common whiteness differences in 
stocks by using only three groups.
