Using the RICOH Auto Color Adjuster Application
To operate the machine, use the RICOH Auto Color Adjuster that is installed on the computer. This section describes the functions and settings
of the RICOH Auto Color Adjuster, and the procedure for starting each function and accessing the settings menus.
| How to Access Functions and Settings | Function/Settings | Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Select the function or the settings button in the menu screen of the RICOH Auto Color Adjuster | Quick Color Adjustment | Scans a color chart and generates a profile automatically. Register the created profile as the output (printer) profile on the DFE, and use the profile when printing a document. Use this function at a regular interval to avoid the changes in the machine condition or printing environment to affect the colors on the output sheets. |
| Color Sample Matching | Generates a profile based on the printed color sample that you scanned using the Color Sample Matching function. Register the created profile as the CMYK input (source) profile on the DFE, and use the profile when printing a document. You can use the generated profile to reproduce the colors of the color sample on the printed page as closely as possible. | |
| Colorimetry | The machine measures the colors on a printed test chart at a regular interval. You can save the measurement results in a file and manage them using a color management or other similar application. | |
| Machine Settings | Specify various settings of the machine. | |
| Select the function or the settings button in a web browser | Management Console | Performs quick certification on the color adjustment result of the printer according to various certification standards. You can manage the records of changes in the certification result over time for each printer. |
| Initial Settings | Specify the printer, paper type, and other settings to use for Quick Color Adjustment. |
