Scanner Calibration Instructions
Perform the scanner calibration procedure if your scanner, document feeder, or document cover is
replaced. Scanner calibration adjusts the output quality of the front and back pages of 2-sided originals in
relation to each other. This procedure should not be performed as part of normal system operation.
Starting the Calibration Procedure
1. On the control panel, press the System button.
2. Select Information, and then press the OK button.
3. Select Troubleshooting, and then press the OK button.
4. Select Service Tools, and then press the OK button.
5. Select Calibrate Scanner, and then press the OK button. Continue with the Document Glass steps.
Document Glass
1. Place the Scanner Calibration page on the document glass, with the top edge of the page toward the
left.
Note: Make sure the calibration page is aligned correctly. If the page is misaligned, the calibration
procedure will fail.
Calibrate the scanner using the Scanner Calibration page that came with your
replacement scanner, document feeder, or document cover. After you begin the
calibration procedure at the control panel, calibrate the scanner using a two-step
process:
■The first step scans the calibration page from the document glass. Follow the
steps in the Document Glass section. (For systems without a document
feeder, only use the steps in this section to calibrate the scanner.)
■The second step scans the calibration page through the document feeder.
Follow the steps in the Document Feeder section.

2. Close the document feeder.
3. On the control panel, select Document Glass Step, and then press the OK button to scan the
calibration page.
4. Wait for the scan to be completed, and then select one of the following options:
■If the control panel indicates Success, press the OK button, and then continue with Step 5.
■If the control panel indicates Failure, press the OK button, and then repeat Steps 1–4.
5. Remove the Scanner Calibration page from the document glass.
■If you have a document feeder, continue with the steps in the Document Feeder section.
■If you have a document glass cover, you have completed scanner calibration.
Document Feeder
1. Place the Scanner Calibration page in the document feeder, so that the top edge of the page enters the
feeder first. Adjust the paper guides to fit against the page.
Note: Make sure the Scanner Calibration page is aligned correctly and the paper guides are adjusted to
fit against the paper. If the page is misaligned, the calibration procedure will fail.
2. On the control panel, select Document Feeder Step, and then press the OK button to scan the
calibration page.
3. Wait for the scan to be completed, and then select one of the following options:
■If the control panel indicates Success, press the OK button. The calibration procedure is
complete.
■If the control panel indicates Failure, press the OK button, and then repeat Steps 1–3.
