Like any other precision instrument, the densitometer must be
calibrated before each use. Refer to its documentation for
instructions on calibrating and using the densitometer.
After calibrating the densitometer, use it to get density measurements
for the calibration page you printed.
Linearizing the Densitometer Data
Enter the densitometer measurements to calculate the adjustments
necessary to correct printer performance to a linear standard.
1. Click Enter Curve/Linearize (fig. 4.23). The Densitometer

button on top of the XD-1 or click the measure button on the
Densitometer Data Entry window (fig. 4.25). The
measurement appears in the box to the right of the Measure
