Adjusting Gradation

Gradation refers to the dark to light continuum of shades of a color. The more shades in the gradations of colors that are printed, the more natural printouts seem. If color reproducibility becomes poor and the density and brightness of printouts differs markedly from the originals, perform the appropriate auto adjustment.


Adjustments may not be performed effectively if there is not sufficient toner cartridge remaining. Check the amount remaining in the toner cartridges. If the amount remaining in the toner cartridge is low, it is recommended that you replace the toner cartridge. Checking the Remaining Amount of Consumables
