15. Image Quality Capabilities
The table below describes the type of image quality the customer can expect when
using the machine.
IMPORTANT
Following installation and set up, it is strongly recommended that owners of the
imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5250 print and store samples of the image quality
the product is capable of producing. These samples should serve as a
benchmark against which subsequent image quality can be referenced. Samples
should be made using as many applications, media, and paper types the owner
intends to use on the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5250.
Item Equipment Capability Comment
Overall Document
Appearance
No three dimensional appearance. Has
look and feel of offset printing. Uniform
look and feel.
Color Uniformity
Color and images are uniform throughout
the document. Gradations are smooth and
even.
The most demanding
customers may occasionally
perceive a small amount of
mottling in large uniform image
areas. Extreme high-humidity
conditions can lead to mottling.
If the customer requires
excellent uniformity, make sure
that they follow an aggressive
maintenance schedule, and
operate the machine within the
machines environmental
requirements.
Color & Image Quality
Consistency/Stabi lity
Color and image quality is consistent
throughout the document, and from one
document to another.
Color Matching
Capable of rendering many of the
Pantone color swatches that are used in
the graphic arts industry.
A user must have the optional
imagePASS-B2 installed.

Image Quality Expectations Table Continued
Item Equipment Capability Comment
Line Quality Even and fine lines can be reproduced.
Extreme high-humidity
conditions can lead to the
break up or blurriness of lines.
Black Reproduction Blacks are well saturated without mottling.
Extreme high-humidity
conditions can lead to mottling.
Text Quality
Sharp, well defined text. No hollow
characters or haloing of text characters.
Extremely high-humidity
conditions can lead to hollow or
the haloing of characters.
Background Level
Stray toner in non-image areas is
unperceivable.
Environmental conditions, such
as low-humidity, can increase
toner levels in the background.
Other Artifacts
As with any printing process, some
artifacts, such as spots, void or deleted
areas, mottling, streaks, and banding may
occur. But, these artifacts are not
significant for most users.
Proper servicing of the
equipment and adherence to
media and environmental
requirements help minimize
these occurrences.
15.1 Customer-Defined Image Quality Adjustments and Recommendations
Customer-defined image quality adjustments enable a user to enhance the
productivity of their machine. There are several user modes, such as the Adjust
Image Quality and Paper Type Management Settings modes, which provide
adjustment functions, to help maintain the desired image quality for each job.
These settings also aim at reproducing optimal images under variable factors (i.e.,
changes in the environment and deterioration due to aging).
To achieve the best image quality the following factors are recommended:
Tighter control of the temperature and humidity will result in tighter image quality
consistency in the device.
The device must be properly maintained, which includes performing preventative
maintenance as scheduled.
To maintain proper color calibration on the device, the customer should perform
a Shading Correction and a Full Auto Gradation Adjustment once a day and
whenever a change in print quality is noticed. Follow these guidelines to calibrate
the machine properly:
- When calibrating the machine, make sure to perform a shading correction first,
then an Auto Gradation Adjustment on the engine, and then a calibration with
the RIP.
- If a user is using an EFI controller, use a high-quality, 28 lb bond (105 g/m
2
),
98% brightness, 11 x 17 or LTR sized paper when performing an Auto
Gradation Adjustment.
- If a user is using the Canon controller or off the glass copying, the user must
calibrate the machine to the paper the user is using. For example, Heavy Paper
1, 2, or 3. Once the users job is complete, it is recommended to recalibrate the
machine using a high-quality, 28 lb bond (105 g/m
2
), 98% brightness, 11 x 17
or LTR sized paper.

15.1.1 Adjust Image Quality Modes
The Adjust Image Quality mode enables a user to make fine adjustments to the
printed image. For more information on specifying the Adjust Image Quality
modes, see Adjustment/Maintenance, in the Settings/Registration e-Manual
included with the machine.
A user can adjust the following items through the Adjust Image Quality menu:
Auto Adjust Gradation Correct Density
Correct Shading Auto Correct Color Mismatch
Full Color Printing Vividness Fine Adjust Zoom
IMPORTANT
It is recommended that a user select [Full Adjust] when performing an
automatic gradation adjustment. Select [Quick Adjust] to perform a quick, but
less complete adjustment between regular full adjustment recalibrations.
If a user specifies the Correct Shading mode, only 12 5/8 x 17 11/16,
12 x 18, 11 x 17, or LTR plain paper can be used for the test pages. Make
sure that a sufficient supply of the aforementioned paper sizes is loaded in a
paper source before starting the Correct Shading procedure.
15.1.2 Paper Type Management Settings
The Paper Type Management Settings mode enables a user to improve the
image quality output result by precisely registering the type of custom or standard
paper settings the user frequently uses in the machine.
A user can adjust the following items through the Paper Type Management
Settings menu:
Basis Weight Finish
Type Color
Adjust Creep Correction
IMPORTANT
The Paper Type Management Settings mode is only available from the
Management mode.
For more information on specifying the Paper Type Management Settings
modes, see Registering/Editing Custom Paper Types, in the
Settings/Registration e-Manual included with the machine.
