Calibrating the DTP41
For the best color accuracy, calibrate the X-Rite DTP41 spectrophotometer every time
you calibrate the Fiery. You can initiate the calibration sequence in ColorWise Pro
Tools Calibrator as part of the process of Fiery calibration. The computer may also
prompt you that it is necessary to calibrate the spectrophotometer.
Alternatively, you can initiate the DTP41 calibration process using the Instrument
button on the DTP41. For more information on this method, see the documentation
that came with the X-Rite DTP41.
Multiple users can be connected to one Fiery with ColorWise Pro Tools, but only one
user at a time can use the Calibrator module. An error message appears if you try to
calibrate when another user is already using ColorWise Pro Tools to calibrate.
You will need the Color Reflection Reference strip that is included with the
spectrophotometer. Remove the strip from its protective envelope, handling it by the
edges only. Keep the strip free of dust and smudges and always store it in the protective
envelope.
