Overview and Setup
Instrument Description
The DTP32HS densitometer is a “high speed” color measurement instrument that reports
densitometric and dot data. The instrument is designed to calibrate color output devices
including large format printers, proofers, and digitally connected color copiers. The
DTP32HS densitometer is a “drop-in” replacement for the X-Rite DTP32R instrument.
This manual covers the installation, basic operation and maintenance of the instrument.
Specific instructions for using the instrument with your third-party software program can be
found in the third-party software documentation.
As the DTP32HS is designed to be a drop-in replacement for the DTP32R Automatic Strip
Reading Densitometer, reflection versions, it will by default report itself as a DTP32R. Most
existing software packages will reference a DTP32R in their connection menu while newer
software may use DTP32HS. Select DTP32HS if it is available, otherwise select the DTP32R.
Unpacking and Inspection
After removing the instrument from the shipping carton, inspect it for damage. If any
damage has occurred during shipping, immediately contact the transportation company. Do
not proceed with installation until the carrier’s agent has inspected the damage.
Your instrument was packaged in a specially designed carton to assure against damage. If
shipment is necessary, the instrument should be packaged in the original carton along with
all the accessories. If the original carton is not available, contact X-Rite to have a
replacement shipped to you.
