Adjusting The Printout Color - Sony UP-55MD Mode D'emploi

Adjustment on the video monitor
The monitor color may not be adjusted correctly even if
the printer color is correctly adjusted. Check the color of
the video monitor before adjusting the printout color. In
such a case, use the THRU signal by setting SOURCE to
THRU on the OUTPUT SETUP menu or turning off the
power of the printer to send out the through signal from
the video equipment to the video monitor.
After adjusting the color of the video monitor using
video monitor controls, adjust the color of the printer's
output signal.
Adjustment on the printer
Note
This adjustment is performed to adjust the color of the
printer output signal when the monitor color is
unsatisfactory. This adjustment does not affect the
printout itself. To adjust the color of the printout, see
"Adjusting the Printout Color" on page 53.

Adjusting the Printout Color

You can adjust the printout quality by adjusting the color
intensity, printout contrast and sharpness and tone
(GAMMA) of the printout.
Adjusting the color intensity, contrast
and sharpness
You can store up to three types of settings and manage
these settings using the LOAD COLOR numbers 1, 2
and 3. The color intensity, picture contrast and sharpness
of a printout are determined by recalling one of the three
settings according to their LOAD COLOR numbers.
This is useful when you are using more than one item of
video equipment, each having different characteristics,
when you want to print images having different color
qualities and picture contrast, or when multiple users
access a single printer.
