Calibrating the DTP32
You will need the black-and-white X-Rite Auto-Cal Strip included with the
densitometer. Calibrating the densitometer does not require ColorWise Pro Tools.
TO CALIBRATE THE X-RITE DTP32
1. Connect the densitometer to the computer and supply power (see page A-10).
2. From the Main Menu on the X-Rite DTP32 display, press the p1 key once to reach p2.
3. Press the cal key.
Calibrating motor speed is displayed, followed by the words INSERT CAL STRIP.
4. Insert the X-Rite Auto-Cal Strip into the 35mm slot on the front of the X-Rite DTP32,
arrow end first, until it stops or the densitometer starts pulling the strip.
Reading appears momentarily, followed by the density values and CALIBRATION OK.
The densitometer automatically returns to the MAIN MENU.
If UNRECOGNIZABLE STRIP appears, repeat the process or try cleaning the strip
(see the X-Rite DTP32 Operating Manual).
Recalibrate the DTP32 at least once per month. For critical color, calibrate the
densitometer every time you calibrate the EX7750. The DTP32 may also warn
periodically that it requires calibration.
