To focus-calibrate your drum scanner
1 • Mount the supplied focus adjustment target on the drum.
2 • If the drum is not bar-coded, click on the Focus & Aperture button in the Preview Setup
window. When the Focus & Aperture window appears, choose the relevant Drum Number
and click on OK.
3 • Choose the relevant scanning mode (Transmission or Reflection) and make a preview scan
that includes the whole focus target.
4 • When the preview scan appears on screen, crop a small area (about 2 x 2 cm or 1" x 1") in
the center of the focus target.
5 • Choose Calibrate Focus from the Calibration menu.
6 • Click on OK to confirm..
• Transmission: green target. Reflection: black and white target.
• Place the target on the part of the drum where you expect to mount the
images for scanning, and mount it the same way you expect to mount them
(for example, emulsion side down, and in oil or gel if you usually use it).
• IMPORTANT: for Reflection, mount the target on top of a piece of clean white
paper about the same thickness as the originals you intend to scan (you can
also turn over the original itself and use the white side on the back).
The calibration will automatically be carried out, and a message will
appear to tell you whether it was successfully completed.
If the calibration was successful, it will automatically be stored under
the chosen drum number or under the bar code number of the drum.
