Using the System

The system automatically downloads the LUT file to the printer to create a test print. When the test print has been sent to the printer, the Scanning Processed Print with Densitometer status icon on the KODAK LED Printer Calibration screen highlights.

Obtaining Densities

Obtaining Densities from a File

If the configuration settings include obtaining the density data from a file, the Waiting for Density File dialog box appears. Otherwise, go to “Using the Densitometer to Read Densities.”

NOTE: To create a density file, see “Creating a Density File for Use with Calibration” on page Appendix C:-32.

1.Click OK to continue with the calibration process.

2.Go to “Completing the Calibration” on page 2-7.

Using the Densitometer to Read Densities

Do the following to scan the neutral (gray) patches on the processed test print into the densitometer (refer to your densitometer manual for detailed instructions on using the densitometer):

1.Slide the lever on the densitometer to position 15. Align the edge of the test print with the lever on the densitometer. Gently feed the test print through the densitometer to scan the patches labeled “even”.

2.Slide the lever on the densitometer to position 20. Align the edge of the test print with the lever on the densitometer. Gently feed the test print through the densitometer to scan the patches labeled “odd”.
