Color Bar Geometry for Eye-One
Color bars can only be scanned automatically with Eye-One if they have
a particular geometry:
• There must be a white area to the left and right of every strip. The
minimum width of this area must be the width of a color patch.
• Color patches must have a minimum width of 8 mm. If neighboring
patches are similar in color, there must be a gap between them.
Strip Scanning with DTP41/45
1. Center the color strip below the alignment mark and insert it into the
strip entrance as far as it will go.
2. Press the instrument button. The DTP41/45 pulls the strip through
automatically and measures the color patches.
The LED on the DTP41/45 flashes if an error occurs during measurement.
In this case make sure the number of color patches and the
measurement geometry has been set correctly in ORIS Certified
Proof, then repeat this process.
3. Measure the second color strip (if any) in the same way.
Strip Scanning with Eye-One
1. Place the scanning ruler on the printed sample and align the guide
slot on the upper row of color patches.
2. Place the measuring head of the Eye-One on the white area to the
left of the color bar.
3. Press the instrument button and wait for a beep to signal that the
device is ready. Instructions on how to perform the measurement are
displayed at the bottom of the dialog.
4. Hold the device button pressed down and move the measuring head
slowly and steadily over the color patches (in about 6 seconds).
5. Release the button when you have reached the end of the row. If the
measurement was successful, the color patches you have measured
are displayed in the dialog.
6. If the color bar consists of multiple strips, measure the next strip in
the same way.
