When you calibrate a Fiery server, you perform the following tasks.

• Print a calibration page, which contains patches of various colors (or shades of gray, for black-and-white printers) in a specific layout. You use this page to measure the current output of the printer.

  The output of the printer changes with time and usage. For the most current data, always measure a newly printed calibration page.

• Measure the color values of the patches on the calibration page using a spectrophotometer.

• Apply the measurements.

  The measurement data is saved with the specific calibration setting. When you print a job with the calibration setting, the measurement data is used to calculate the calibration adjustment that is needed to produce the desired output (the calibration target).
