Calibrating the Scanner
Note that you must not calibrate the scanner every day. It is intended
that the scanner be calibrated not more than once every three months.
In most cases, this procedure will never be necessary.
Use the procedure below to focus calibrate your scanner:
1. Locate the drum and ßatbed focus calibration targets that came
with your scanner. The drum target is a 6X6 cm square of clear
plastic with many black lines on it. The ßatbed target is a letter-size
piece of clear plastic, also with black lines on it.
2. Load the drum calibration target into the top square of the 6X6 ßex-
ible original holder. The stripes must point in towards the scanner
(vertically). Take care to place the target as straight as possible. Use
the scannerÕs light-table grid and the corners marked on the target
to help align it. See ÒUsing the DrumÓ on page 16 for more infor-
mation about how to mount originals using a ßexible original
holder.
3. Position the ßatbed target between the glass plates of the ßatbed as
described in ÒScanning Batches and Thick Reßectives with the Flat-
bedÓ on page 19. Position the target in the center of the plate with
the stripes pointing in towards the scanner. Place it as straight as
possible.
4. Select Calibration from the Maintenance menu. The Focus Cali-
bration window appears.
