•
Printed images that are subject to prolonged exposure to sunlight, ultraviolet light, or extreme
heat may degrade in image quality. (For example, printed sheets should not be stored in an
automobile on a sunny day.) Precautions should be used to avoid prolonged direct exposure.
Codonics Paper/White Film Media
The terms “white paper” and “white film” are synonymous references and used interchangeably in
this manual.
File Transfer via FTP and LPR
•
Different users who share a user name when transferring files to the imager may cause
unpredictable and erroneous printed output. The
imager associates
information with the user
name. Each user should have a unique user name when connecting to the imager via FTP and
LPR.
Color Management
•
Image settings
—including gamma, contrast, Dmax, saturation, and MCM™ (Medical Color
Matching™)—
are intended to compensate for differences that may occur between image
acquisition and image printing. These filters allow you to accurately render the final printed
image. You should use care when applying these filters to avoid over compensation.
•
The Default User Settings set at the control panel will potentially affect prints made by all users.
Use caution when changing the default settings.
Image Scaling
•
Scaling an image will filter the original image data and add or remove information, which may
affect the accuracy of the final printed image. The amount of information added or removed will
also vary with the magnitude of the scale factor applied. This can also affect the accuracy of the
final printed image. You should be aware of the properties and limitations of each scaling
algorithm and select the appropriate algorithm for the task.
Hardware Variations
•
Components used in the imager may vary, causing differences in image quality. The thermal
process of producing a print utilizes many components that are calibrated to provide
consistency between imagers. There are subtle differences between imagers that can cause print
variations. These differences usually apply to thermal print head calibration. Other factors such
as age, usage, heat, mechanical wear, and shipping can affect image color and quality.
•
The type of media used to install software updates and to backup imager configuration settings
depends on hardware variations. If the imager has a built-in Zip drive, installations and backups
are performed using 100-MB Zip disks. If the imager does not have a built-in Zip drive, USB flash
drives are used with the USB ports on the rear panel. Throughout this manual, Zip disks and USB
flash drives are referred to as
installation media
or
backup media
, depending on the operation
being performed.
NOTE: If the imager has both a Zip drive and a USB port, always use the Zip disk to install software
and save configuration settings.
