ABSTRACT:
A method of adjusting a printing system includes providing a printing system including a plurality of marking engines that include first, second and third actuators. The method includes setting each of the actuators of each marking engine to predetermined values, and generating a plurality of printed samples having a visually apparent background density using at least one of the marking engines. The method also includes evaluating the printed samples, and adjusting the first actuator of at least one marking engine based at least partially on the evaluation. A system is also disclosed.
