If your scans are coming out unfocused or at slightly the wrong size, then you may need to make a new focus calibration to adjust the zoom mechanism. The focus calibration is stored in the scanners flash PROM, so it is preserved when you move the scanner to a new computer. During calibration, the scanner scans a white target to establish the white point along the full length of the scanners CCD. The results of the white calibration scan are saved on your computers hard disk, so you must make a new white calibration if you move the scanner to a new computer. See "White Calibration for Reflectives" on page 22 for more information. · White calibration is only required for reflective scans (it is done Both of the calibration procedures are simple and are initiated from the FlexColor program. User's Guide - Flextight 949 Hardware Reference - Flextight 949 Calibrating the Scanner 21 Focus Calibration The Flextight 949 scanner uses an adjustable zoom and focus mechanism to optimize its scanning resolution for each of the original formats it can handle. If you suspect your scans are not as sharp as they should be, then you may need to calibrate your scanner. It is intended that the scanner is calibrated not more than once every three months. It is a 8 x 9 cm (3" x 3. 5") square of transparent film with a black image on it. Focus sheet PN:40900026, rev. 1. 10 2. Load the sheet into the 6 x 6 original holder with the lines pointing towards the scanner (vertically). Use the scanners light table grid and the corners marked on the sheet to help align it.
