Calibration Sheet
[posted at 13:13 GMT]    

You may or may not know that I am working as trainer/coach for Philips Healtcare. I am focusing on giving courses for Medical software for handling medical images. One of the topics I give is also calibration. The calibration sheet, test image which our application use is in one of the simple and most useful I have saw. It is not simple gray 21 steps, but it is whole page sized image containing patches of the same color on different places of the sheet.
I am planning to use similar aproach for calibrating my printer to the new ink and QTR RIP I am going to use in next months.

This simple but smart way ensure that by averaging measurements from different places of the paper we eliminates problems caused by problems on paper or on certain position of printing head of the printer.
