View tolerance levels for color evaluations

The evaluation of the results for media family calibration and G7® Grayscale are based on set tolerance levels.

Color evaluation methods use metrics to decide if printed colors are close enough to their reference colors or not. A tolerance level or threshold level is set before the evaluation takes place. The level specifies where a calculated difference is still acceptable and where not. A tolerance level is also expressed by a △(Delta) value.

When you want to change the tolerance values, contact your Service organization.
