DRYSTAR 5500/5503 REFERENCE MANUAL
Film calibration
The film calibration combines Dmax and sensitometry calibration, and is
activated as one single procedure. Separate Dmax and sensitometry
calibration steps are not required.
For more general information on maintaining image quality, refer to
‘Maintaining image quality and resolving Image quality problems’ on page 220.
To start the film calibration:
1 Perform step 1 to 2 of the ‘Accessing the calibration menu’ procedure on page 111
to select the ‘Calibration’ screen.
2 Press the Confirm key to select ‘Film’.
The ‘Select input tray’ screen appears:
3 Press the Up/Down arrow keys to select an input tray, followed by the Confirm
key (e.g. choose upper input tray).
The ‘Film calibration in progress’ screen appears:
The counter indicates the progress of the calibration process. The calibration film is
measured automatically by the built-in MDM (Macro DensitoMeter). The
Drystar 5500 is being calibrated during the printing process.
In the procedure, we will assume a film calibration on the upper input tray. The
procedure for the lower input tray is identical.
