Drystar 5300 Imager: Determination of Operating Levels
Chart 1
Imager Type: __________ Serial #: _________________ Date ____________________
Film Type: ____________ Emulsion #: ______________
Densitometer (Internal or External )
If External: Type ____________ Serial #: _________________
Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5
Month
Day
Initials
Base + Fog
Average of 5 Values = operating (aim) level Base + Fog
Mid Density
Average of 5 Values = operating (aim) level "Mid Density"
Dens. Difference
Average of 5 Values = operating (aim) level Density Difference
Dmax
Average of 5 Values = operating (aim) level Dmax
Step 1: Print QC Test images on five consecutive days. Record the optical densities
measurements in the tables below. After five days, average the values to determine
the operating (aim) levels for each of the parameters.
Step 2: Copy the operating (aim) levels to Charts 2A/B (’Daily Density Control Chart’)
