Measuring a Density Sample
So far, you have performed the procedures to select the
density mode, options, and to measure paper and references.
You are now ready to begin taking measurements to
check density values. The type of measurement data that
displays depends on the way you set up your instrument
earlier in this section.
To measure a sample:
1.
Make sure
Sample
is highlighted on the screen and
center the target window over area to be measured.
2.
Lower unit to target window and hold closed.
3.
Once measurement data is displayed, release the unit.
4.
Measurement data appears either as an actual density
value (absolute or minus paper) or a difference value.
Viewing Density Data
There are several different combinations of mode and
option settings that affect the way the measurement data
is displayed.
