ALIBRATING THE
S
CANNER
Calibrate the scanner if colors appear in areas that should be white, or colors of the
scanned image and the original vary a lot. This allows you to adjust and compensate
for variations that can occur in the optical component over time by its nature.
The following describes how to calibrate the scanner:
1. Insert the special calibration sheet into the ADF of the scanner, with the arrow
toward the scanner buttons.
Attention
Please insert the special calibration sheet
included with the scanner. Alternatively you may
also use any plain white sheet of paper sized in
Letter/A4 instead; however, the calibration effect
may be less good than the special calibration
sheet.
2. Click
