Sharpness Adjustment at the Modality
Case 1
: Modality sends in page mode:
In case the modality sends the images in page mode (i.e. it does not send
single images to the printer but already the complete, prepared image
information for one film) use Cubic Bell interpolation. It is defined via following
smooth factors:
Cubic Bell smooth factors
Possible range
299 (less sharp) to 200 (very sharp)
Reasonable values
251 (less sharp) to 235 (very sharp)
Default value
245

Case 2
: Modality sends in image mode:
In case the modality sends the images in image mode (i.e. it sends single
images to the printer to let the printer compose the single images for one film)
use Cubic High Res interpolation. It is defined via following smooth factors:

Possible range
199 (less sharp) to 101 (very sharp)
