Print profiling pages

Fiery Print Matcher lays out color patches on measurement pages depends on the measurement instrument, patch layout, and paper size that you specify.

Patch layouts differ by the number of patches. Some are based on ICC standard targets.

You can also set the number of warmup pages to print. (Warmup pages are extra copies of the profiling pages that you can discard.) We recommend that you measure the next-to-last copy printed.

  1. In the Instrument menu, click the instrument to use.
  2. (Optional) To make specific settings for the instrument, click Settings.
  3. Click a patch layout in the Patch layout menu.
    • Recommended
      • A recommended Fiery Edge patch layout chart is listed. When listing the recommended patch layout chart, Fiery Color Profiler Suite considers your measurement instrument, sheet size, and calibration set. The number of patches and expected pages will be displayed.

    • Fiery Edge alternatives
      • Dynamically generated patch layout charts are listed in order of the number of patches. You can choose from four patch layouts.

    • Industry Standard
      • IT8.7/5 (1617 patches) - The 1617 target is a CMYK printer characterization target combining the unique patch values in the standard IT8.7/4 target with all the patch values in columns 4 and 5 of the P2P51 target.

      • IT8.7/4 (1617 patches) or IT8.7/4 (1617 sorted layout) - Are similar to the 928-patch layouts but provide more data. The sorted layout helps to reduce potential bias caused by color variation across the page.
