Printer Calibration
For Color critical customers, Imation recommends daily calibration and recalibration each time the
printer is serviced.
Printer calibration can be performed internally by using the DocuColor 12™ CP built-in scanner or by
using the Spectrocam™, an external measurement device, on the DocuColor 12™ LP.
Note: Refer to the Imation Matchprint Professional Server on-line User Guide for complete information
on calibrating with the Spectrocam™.
If calibration is to be performed using the DocuColor 12 scanner, please skip to the section titled,
"Compete the following steps for calibration."
Spectrocam™ Setup
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Connect the Spectrocam™ to the COM 1 (or appropriate) serial port on the back of the Imation
Matchprint™ Professional Server.
3. Plug the Spectrocam power connector into the AC adapter and then plug the AC adapter into a
power outlet.
4. Power on the computer.
5. Launch the Imation Matchprint™ Professional Server software.
Complete the following steps for calibration:
1. From the Printer menu, select XeroxDocuColor 12 (or the name of the printer requiring calibration).
The Printer Settings window displays.

Calibrating with the DocuColor12 Scanner
1. Place the calibration form on the platen of the DocuColor 12 and click Calibrate.
2. If the calibration is successful, the screen display says, "The calibration process was successful.
You may now calibrate another media."
3. Click OK to go back to the calibration window.
Note: If the calibration process fails, check to make sure the test page is properly positioned on the platen.
The scanable area is 11"x 17". If the calibration test form is outside this area, calibration will fail.
Calibrating with the Spectrocam™
1. Place the test form and ruler on the black scanner plate and position the measurement device on
the first patch on the upper, left corner.
2. Click on the Calibrate button.
If the Spectrocam was not previously calibrated, a prompt directs you to calibrate the white reference.
Place the measurement device on the white target reference and touch the green sensor to calibrate.
After calibrating with the white reference, reposition the measurement device on the first patch on the
upper, left corner of the test form.
3. Touch the green sensor and move the device slowly down the first row. When you complete the first
row, reposition the Spectrocam over the first patch of the second row and touch the green sensor
again to begin measuring the second row. Continue in this fashion until all rows are read.
• Patches are read from left to right in a slow, steady manner. It should take approximately 6 to 8
seconds to completely scan one row.
• If you move too slowly or too rapidly, patches are not read correctly. Within the calibrate dialog
an X appears on any patch that is miss-read.
