Hi !!!. I have a costumer with one Bizhub Pro C6501 and Fiery IC-408 and when i try to calibrate with the ColorCal, it says that the Colorcal patch not detected. Does anyone know how solve this in order to avoid buying a Spectrophotometer?. Thanks
Hi,
To properly calibrate you need both the grey scale and the color charts. These come with the Fiery (but most of the time are thrown away).
If you don't have these it is impossible but if you do then it is pretty straight forward.
I will be completely honest though, if it is a choice of running default calibration or calibration using Colorcal then it would be default calibration all the time.

I have the grey scale and color charts, but the machine does not recognize those charts.
I seem to recall when trying colorcal if it fails to recognize the charts then you need to reposition them slightly on the glass.
Might be worthwhile (if you haven't already) to clean the optics.
I am by no means an expert on colorcal. I never use it as I know the results you will get will be sub par compared to calibration with a spectro.
colorcal measures density to calibrate the machine. a densitometer measures the actual color, so you will get accurate results with a densitometer.
you can do better by eye doing the engine calibrations.
We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
The medication helps though...
