Adjusting Gradation

If the gradation of the printing result is significantly different from the original document when you copy or print an image, you can perform adjustment (calibration) to correct the gradation.
Frequently performing calibration may affect the life of the toner cartridge.
Performing calibration when the toner level is low may adversely affect the color balance. If this symptom occurs, it is recommended that you replace the toner cartridge that is low. Checking the Remaining Toner Level
Automatic calibration is performed according to changes in the status and environment of the machine.
