9. At your computer, click on the Reßex button. A window appears in
which you can choose the resolutions you want to calibrate.
10. Choose the resolutions you wish to calibrate, just as with the reßec-
tive calibrations. Again, we recommend you calibrate for all resolu-
tions.
11. Click on the Calibrate button. The scanner will focus for each of the
selected resolutions and calibrate for each of the selected resolu-
tions (one at a time).
12. Again, when the calibration is Þnished, ColorFlex will again dis-
play the window in which you can select the calibration type. Click
on the Done button.
Your scanner is now calibrated for all resolutions and for both transpar-
ent and reßective originals.
White Calibration for Reflectives
The Flextight scanner uses a white reference to make sure that all ele-
ments in the scannerÕs CCD react consistently to light brightnesses.
The Þrst time you make a reßective scan, a window will appear
reminding you to make a white calibration scan. Thereafter, the calibra-
tion will be stored on your computerÕs hard disk. As the scanner ages,
the properties of the light tubes may change slightly. Therefore, you
must redo the white calibration every six months or so and immedi-
ately after changing the light tubes. Note also that because the white
calibration information is stored on your computerÕs hard disk, you
must make a white calibration each time you move the scanner to a
new computer.
