If scratch correction is enabled, the system automatically disables it when printing B/W films, and enables it again when printing color frames. Defining a Standard Configuration For each film mask--135 FF, 120, File print, etc. --you can define a Single and a Package order configuration to be the standard configuration. The system always displays the standard configuration in the first position in the configuration list and uses it automatically: · After a system startup · After a change of the film mask · After the change to Autoprint Touch Standard (bottom left on the screen) to enable the displayed configuration as the standard.

The purpose of the printer calibration is to align the individual elements of the KODAK PROFESSIONAL SRP 30 Laser Printer ­ print engine, paper, and paper processor ­ with respect to each other. The result of a successful calibration is the neutral appearance of the grayscale on the last test print. You can perform tests for the SRP 30 Laser Printer before or during production.
