Under Generate Measurement Page, click Print.
5
Select appropriate options for your measurement instrument and click Print to print the measurement page.
Sorted patches are printed on the page in order of hue and saturation levels. Randomized patches are printed in
random order. Randomized patches can help to compensate for density inconsistencies on different areas of the
page.
6
Under Get Measurements, click Measure and select the options that match the printed measurement page.
7
Click Measure.
8
Place the Eye-One in the calibration cradle.
White point calibration is used to calibrate the spectrophotometer and compensate for gradual drifts in the
instrument. Make sure the sample aperture is in full contact with the white tile on the calibration cradle. If you do
not place it correctly in the calibration cradle, the spectrophotometer does not return accurate measurements.
9
Click OK and follow the instructions for measuring the strips (in the Status field of the Measurements dialog
box).
10
For a more accurate measurement, place several sheets of plain white paper beneath the measurement page or
use a backer board if it is available. The extra sheets block underlying colors from being read by the instrument.
11
Orient the measurement page so that strips are horizontal and the scan direction (indicated by the arrows at the
beginning of each strip) is left to right.
12
Hold the Eye-One with its length perpendicular to the scan direction, and place the tip of the sensor in the white
space at the start of the specified color.
13
Press and hold the Eye-One button and wait for a beep or wait for the background color in the dialog box to
change from green to white.
Note: To hear a beep with a Windows computer, you must install a sound card and speaker(s). You may have to
turn up the volume on your computer to hear the beep.
14
After you hear a beep or see the dialog box background color change, slide the Eye-One at a slow but consistent
pace across the strip. (Take about five seconds to slide the length of the strip.)
15
Release the button when all the patches in the strip have been measured and you reach the white space at the end
of the strip.
When a strip is measured successfully, the dialog box background color changes to green, and the cross hair
moves to the next color. If the strip is not measured successfully, the dialog box background color changes to red,
and a message directs you to try again.
16
Repeat for all the strips in the order indicated on the screen.
17
When all the patches have been read successfully, click Accept.
18
To apply the measurement data to the Fiery Server, click Apply.
19
Cick OK to complete the calibration process.
Apply measurements to multiple calibration sets
If your Fiery Server supports the Apply to All Calibration Sets option, you can copy the measurements from the
calibration you are currently performing to all calibration sets on the Fiery Server or to selected calibration sets.
