Calibrating the Printer
Overview
The PhaserMatch application allows you to adjust the gray balance and gray
linearity values in the printer for individual transfer rolls to ensure
consistency in your printed images.

When to use PhaserMatch
■
For most applications, the factory default calibration settings
should work well. However, if you are using a demanding
pre-press application, you may need to use PhaserMatch. For
example, if you see a hue shift, or if all colors are either too light or
too dark, you can use PhaserMatch to adjust points along the gray
scale curve to change the hue and the relative lightness/darkness
of all printed colors.

Use PhaserMatch to adjust color balance if you notice a hue shift
in neutral gray colors, or a color imbalance where one primary
color (cyan, magenta, yellow, or black) appears too strong or too
weak in comparison to the other primary colors.
