<Gradation Adjustment During Printing> (C7700 Series Only)

 (Settings/Registration)  <Adjustment/Maintenance>  <Adjust Image Quality>
To maintain the stability of gradation, density, and colour, the machine performs the density adjustment internally during printing. The sensor detects the density of a patch, which is created on the Intermediate Transfer Belt every several sheets of paper is printed, to perform the density adjustment. You can increase the frequency of the density adjustment to maintain more stable image quality, if necessary.
