Obtain measurement for color benchmark

These final measurements establish the target gamut for the printer.

Note: Options vary depending on the Fiery server. Some Fiery servers will automatically calculate the color benchmark during the profile creation step. For other Fiery servers, you will need to print and measure patches to set the color benchmark.
  1. Choose one of the following:
    • Print measurement chart

      Select Include visual chart to print the measurement patches for visual inspection.

      If you choose this option, follow the online instructions to print patch pages and measure them.

    • Import measurements from file
      Note: Loading measurements from file is most useful for tests and demonstrations. It is otherwise generally not recommended. Best results are obtained when measurement pages for all calibration creation steps are printed and measured in a single session.
      Keep in mind the following:
      • The printer’s response may have changed since the measurement file was saved.
      • Measurement files do not contain information on how the measurement pages were printed. Default job properties are assumed.

      If you choose this option, the measurements will be displayed in the next window.
