[. . . ] Every paper configuration (for example, every individual cassette code) used for production must be calibrated. The working point of the laser and the maximum densities are determined for the paper. Usually this step is only required once, when the PBL is determined for the first time. For this purpose, the test print's graded densities and halo print are exposed. The PBL test print is used to adjust a neutral grayscale. Several cycles are usually required. KODAK PROFESSIONAL SRP 30 Laser Printer 5-3 Operator's Guide Prerequisites for MBL and PBL Calibration Before printing the MBL and PBL calibration: 1. Check that there are no print orders pending. Touch the Information (i) button to check that no paper is in the paper transport of the printer and the paper processor for the MBL and the PBL calibration. Check that there is enough paper in the magazine for the two tests (approximately 3 m [40 in. ]). Check that the chemical solutions are at nominal temperature. Printing a PBL Test When it is necessary to print a PBL test, follow these instructions. 1. Touch: · Test · Start PBL 2. Select the paper configuration for which the PBL test is to be printed. Enter in the next screen: · Emulsion no. (only for information, not assessed) · Tolerance: Step width 0. 1 mm Possible input of the manually measured deviation of the paper from the coded width (useful for border prints). Touch Start. 5-4 KODAK PROFESSIONAL SRP 30 Laser Printer Tests You can use the Settings / Machine settings / Printer menu to set up how often the automatic PBL should be repeated if the values are out of tolerance. The number of retries can be from 1 to 10. PBL Test with Laser Point The laser point is used to set the exposure levels required to produce the desired D-max value of the paper being tested. NOTE: You can press [Alt] + [F1] to set the D-max for a paper. The PapersData dialog box appears. 1. Select the desired paper from the drop-down list and adjust the "Max. Density" and "Color Balance" as needed. The values shown above are for KODAK PROFESSIONAL Digital III Color Paper. [. . . ] Prepare the new ink ribbon cartridge: If present, remove the foil strip on the ink ribbon. The ink ribbon must be tight in the cartridge; if necessary tighten by the knob (4) (note the direction indicated by the arrow). Slightly turn the knob (4) on the cartridge until you hear the cartridge lock in. Push in the lane distributor and tighten the locking screw. 8-50 KODAK PROFESSIONAL SRP 30 Laser Printer Maintenance Emptying the Effluent Tanks WARNING: Wear protective gloves, a rubber apron, and goggles when you empty the effluent tanks. As soon as one of the effluent tanks is full, a message appears on the screen advising that this tank must be emptied. [. . . ]
