OPERATING MANUAL
When you click in the Recipe list field, the whole recipe list is displayed.
You can then click on any recipe. This will then be displayed in the
Recipe List field.
3. Click on OK if the recipe displayed in the Recipe list field
meets your wishes. You then come into the main window
where the full recipe is displayed.
The right-hand side of the main window displays the target color (pattern),
together with the color values and the recipe color, plus the deviations
from the target color. The color values and deviations are displayed in
accordance with the selected color system ( see Section 22.1 «General
settings»).
The metamerism values M1 and M2 in the lower area of the window are
displayed for the illuminants selected ( see Section 22.1 «General
settings»).
The components used in the recipe and the necessary quantities are
displayed in the Recipe field. The sum of all part quantities corresponds
to the value entered in the Ink quantity field. The data are mass-related,
i.e. using them, you can mix the components directly on a balance.
If you want to display a different recipe which has been calculated, click
on in the Recipe selection button or on Further recipes in the Recipe
menu. You can then select the desired recipe from the Recipe selection
window.
By clicking on the pushbuttons with the arrow symbols in the Recipe selection
button, you can display the next recipe up or down in the list of the
calculated recipes immediately ( see section 3.2.1 «Main window»).
A further way of assessing a recipe is to compare the spectra of the target
color and the recipe ( see Section 5.2.8 «Displaying spectra»).
You can subsequently change the entries displayed in the Film thickness
and Viscosity fields ( see Section 5.4 «Changing the film thickness or
viscosity of a recipe»).
If you change the entry in the Ink quantity field, the values for the individual
colorant components are immediately updated. You can also calculate the
ink quantity needed for your print job ( see Section 5.3 «Calculating
the ink quantity»).
