Driver and Software 38 2 Other Print Options2 You can set the following in Printer Function: Color Calibration Use Reprint Sleep Time Improve Print Output Skip Blank Page Color Calibration2 The output density of each color may vary depending on the temperature and humidity of the environment the machine is in. This setting helps you to improve color density by letting the printer driver use the color calibration data stored in your machine. Use Calibration Data If you check this box, the printer driver will use the calibration data retrieved from the machine to set color matching in the printer driver to ensure consistent print quality. Start Color Calibration... If you click this button, your machine will start color calibration and then the printer driver will attempt to get the calibration data from your machine. Get Device Data Automatically If you check this box, the printer driver will automatically get the color calibration data from your machine. Note If you print by using the Direct Print feature or BR-Script printer driver, you need to perform the calibration from the control panel. See Color Calibration on page 82. Use Reprint2 The machine keeps the print job sent to it in memory. You can reprint the last job without sending the data again from your computer. For more information about the Reprint function, see Reprinting documents on page 68.
