When the recommended media is not sufficiently available, you can use custom media for automatic gradation adjustment. Automatic gradation adjustment uses an internal sensor to register the custom media.
For an optimal print quality on custom media, you are advised to register the custom media you use mostly.
To register custom media you also need some sheets of the recommended calibration media. At the end of the registration procedure you can decide if you want to use the registered custom media for automatic gradation adjustment.
Prepare approximately 20 sheets of the recommended calibration media. These sheets are used as reference media during the procedure. (Learn about calibration)
