[. . . ] Press and hold the measure button and wait for a beep. NOTE: To hear a beep with a Windows compatible computer, you must have a sound card and speaker(s) installed. After you hear a beep, slide the ES-1000 at a slow but consistent pace across the strip. Release the button when all the patches in the strip have been measured, and you have reached the white space at the end of the strip. 13. When a strip is measured successfully, the cross hair moves to the next color. 14. Repeat step 10 through step 13 until all the strips have been measured. NOTE: You must take the measurements in the order outlined in the Status field. 2 15. 17. 2-13 Using the EFI Densitometer ED-100 When all the patches have been read successfully, click Accept. Click Apply in the Calibrator window to implement the new calibration measurement. Click OK in the Information dialog box. This completes the Fiery S300 calibration process. Using the EFI Densitometer ED-100 The EFI Densitometer ED-100 is a hand-held instrument that measures the density of printed ink and toner. Like the DTP32, the ED-100 is a reflection densitometer that you can use to calibrate the Fiery S300. Setting up the ED-100 To use the ED-100 for calibration purposes, you must first set it up for use with your computer. For complete instructions on setting up the ED-100, see the documentation that is included with the instrument. The following illustration shows the components of the ED-100. Indicator light Measure button Sample aperture (underneath) 2 TO 1. 3. 2-14 Color Calibration Calibrating the Fiery S300 with the ED-100 You can use ColorWise Pro Tools in conjunction with the ED-100 to calibrate the Fiery S300. FIERY S300 ED-100 CALIBRATE THE USING THE Start Calibrator. For instructions on starting Calibrator, see page 2-5. Choose EFI Densitometer ED-100 as the measurement method. In the Check Print Settings pane, choose the desired calibration set. Choose the appropriate calibration set for the type of media you will use most often. NOTE: For this calibration to take effect, the calibration set must be associated with one or more output profiles. There is no need to make any new associations for the default calibration set, since it is already associated with the default output profile. 4. In the Generate Measurement Page pane, click Print. The Print Options dialog box appears. 5. Choose the appropriate options and click Print. For Page Type, choose 21 Sorted Patches. Sorted patches are printed on the page in the order of their hue and saturation levels. Paper Size is automatically set to LTR/A4 for 21 Patches. For Input Tray, specify the paper source for printing the measurement page. 2 6. 8. 2-15 Using the EFI Densitometer ED-100 Retrieve the measurement page from the copier. [. . . ] To use your own measurement data from an alternate measurement instrument, record your individual readings in a text file and structure it as follows. Simple ASCII Import File Format (SAIFF) This format describes Status T measurement data for import into the ColorWise Pro Tools Calibrator. The three possible file formats are: · 1D Status T density for EFI 34 patch page · 1D Status T density for EFI 21 patch page · 1D Status T density for other pages (maximum of 256 patches per ink) The file format is ASCII and has no tabs. A single space or multiple spaces are used as delimiters. Each line in the file represents four patches (C, M, Y, K) of a specific ink value. [. . . ]
