When you print a calibration page, first specify the calibration settings by specifying the inks used, preset, and other details, as required.

1. In the Color tab in the Job Properties window, choose the color mode that is required for your production output:
   • CMYK
   • CMYK + N
     Note: Where N is an additional color mode available for the press, if supported.
2. Specify an output profile in the Color tab in the Job Properties window.

   The only additional setting to modify in the Color tab is the output profile.

   Select an output profile from the available list that closely matches your substrate properties. Although Calibrator will not use the output profile for color management, Calibrator and Fiery Color Profiler Suite use proprietary information in output profiles to optimize their internal settings.

3. On a press that requires Substrate Catalog, define the substrate from Substrate Catalog and the substrate size from Size ID on the Substrate tab in the Job Properties window. On a press where Substrate Catalog is optional or is not available, make sure the substrate source (tray) contains the substrate properties you are selecting in Job Properties, for example, weight, type, coating, and size. Do not use settings such as "any" or "automatic", because the calibration you are creating must be for the exact print conditions. Generic settings do not guarantee optimal results.
4. (Optional) Specify other job properties if you choose not to use the default settings for printing a job.
5. For presses requiring manual ink limiting, select the Apply preliminary ink values check box, click Settings to define the ink limits, and then click OK.

   Click Link to link all the ink limits together and then you can change only one ink value. If only 100% of ink on substrate gives an issue, then use this option, otherwise you can skip this step. Reprint with option turned on.

   Click Reset to reset to the default ink values.

   Note: If the Fiery server supports light inks, then the light ink limits are calculated automatically depending on the normal ink limits.
6. Click Print Pages to print the calibration page and proceed to measurement.
