Q Will we experience any deformation/smiling effect on the media?
In very exceptional cases you may find deformation but with the new efficient curing system you should find very good
results, good enough to perform contour cutting.

Q How long will it take to make a profile with the three models, is there any
difference in time?
To create a media profile it will take up to 30 minutes which will include a color calibration, but not an ICC profile in the case
of the HP Latex 310 and HP Latex 330. If you wish to include ICC profiling in the case of the HP Latex 360 it will take an
additional 20 minutes.
Q With no spectrophotometer on the HP Latex 310 and 330 how do I do perform ICC
color profiling if I want accurate colors.
The first step is to ensure you have performed the internal color calibration on the media, if you require consistency over
time. Then you can perform an external ICC profile, either from your RIP (if supported) or from any other color profiler you
may have, measure the colors and input the values into your profiler. Please note that the RIP won’t sync with the HP Latex
300 internal profile menu as they are not digitally signed.
Q I have had curing problems with flat colors in the past like greens, browns and
purples. What can I do to prevent this?
There has been reports of problems like these on previous generations of Latex printers however during testing on the HP
Latex 300 printers we have not found any problems with these tints when using the published profiles.
Q Is there an emulation mode for other HP Latex printers
An “emulation mode” is currently not offered. Offline color calibration solutions are offered by HP partners (e.g. GMG). HP
has produced a basic guide, however if you require further assistance please contact your reseller color expert who can help
you with the emulation process.
Q Can the Spectrophotometer become inaccurate over a period of time?
There should not be any decline of accuracy in Spectrophotometer performance over a period of time as this has been
rigorously tested by HP and I1.The unit is very reliable and before each scan it performs a self-calibration on an internal
target inside the sensor.
Q How often do you need to perform closed loop color calibration (CLC)
CLC should be performed after changing one or more printheads, or after printheads start to wear out, normally when they
are over their average life expectancy (see Ink and printheads section). The printer is automatically updating a CLC Status
flag by substrate, to advise on the necessity of performing color calibration. Whenever the CLC status is completed, there is
no need to perform color calibration on that substrate.
