The AutoGray feature allows you to adjust the gray balance of output
profiles. Gray balance refers to the quality of neutral gray tones in a profile. In many cases, gray
tones may contain a bluish or reddish color cast. AutoGray helps shift these tones back toward
neutral gray.
If you are satisfied with the gray balance of the
printer, you do not need to use AutoGray.
To use AutoGray, you need a grayscale
strip. If you do not have a grayscale strip, obtain one from the manufacturer of your printer or
from the Tiffen company at www.tiffen.com.
Note: AutoGray is not available if the printer does
not have a built-in scanner.
