X-Rite DTP32, both of which are reflection densitometers which feed color
measurements to the Fiery 3850C automatically.

Setting up the ED-100 densitometer
To use the ED-100 for calibration purposes, you must first set it up for use with your
computer. For complete instructions on setting up the ED-100, see the documentation
that is included with the instrument.
The following illustration shows the different components of the ED-100.
Setting up the X-Rite DTP32 densitometer
Before you calibrate the Fiery 3850C using the X-Rite DTP32, you need to connect,
configure, and calibrate the densitometer to prepare for measuring the printed patches
(see “Calibrating the X-Rite DTP32 densitometer” on page 3-28). For additional
information about setting up and using the DTP32, see the documentation included
with it.
