Setting ColorCal Options

Splash G630 User Guide

                                                                  

In any color copier/printer, color output changes over 
time, producing inconsistent color from day to day, or 
even hour to hour. Splash ColorCal adjusts these 
changes, keeping output consistent.

Advantages of using Splash ColorCal are as follows:

•

Splash ColorCal requires no special color 

knowledge and does not require the use of a 
densitometer.

•

Splash ColorCal is more accurate than other 

calibration solutions because it automatically adjusts 
gray balance in addition to accurate linearization.

•

Splash ColorCal uses three times more color 

patches, with over six times the resolution in critical 
regions to provide results more accurate than 
competitive solutions.

•

Splash ColorCal includes an option that 

randomizes placement of the patches on the 
calibration target to minimize the effects of print 
density variations on a page.

•

Splash ColorCal allows calibration on heavy 

stock papers.

•

Splash CMYK and RGB color correction is 

usable once calibration is complete.

•

ColorCal’s advanced features can create and save 

custom color profiles. Profiles of multiple calibrations 
can be saved for use with specific printing conditions 
and print media.

•

Calibration takes only a few minutes, so the 

printer’s color output can be tested and recalibrated as 
often as needed.

The ColorCal application is located in the Splash 
Calibration folder in the Splash Utilities folder on the 
Splash server. The Splash Calibration folder can be 
moved anywhere on the Splash server hard disk. A 
folder containing the ColorCal profiles is in the 

Preferences folder within the System folder. See 
“Managing the Profiles Folders” on page 85 for notes 
about moving Splash color profiles to other folders.

If desired, change the calibrated profile Splash 
ColorCal uses to create the Desired Density lines 
during verification. 

For example, set the verification profile to CMYK 
SWOP if you use this profile frequently for printing.

In the Splash ColorCal application, choose 

ColorCal Options from the Splash menu. The 
Default and Custom CMYK profiles appear.

Choose a profile in the Verify Against pop-up 

menu. You can choose any calibrated CMYK profile, 
custom profile, or Pass Through (standard output) 
profile for verification.

Click OK.

For most purposes the Pass Through profile should be 
set to Visual Standard, the default setting. This 
selection produces the most visually smooth output.

This section describes how to calibrate your copier/
printer with Splash ColorCal. For best color printing 
results, recalibrate the printer at least once daily. 
Recalibrate several times a day during heavy use. 
ColorCal runs only on the Splash server.
