Ribbon Media Choices
Kodak is introducing new thermal three-color (CMY) media ribbons
(V1.5) which are improved versions of the V1.0 three-color (CMY)
ribbons. These changes affect only KODAK EKTATHERM XLS
Three-Color Ribbon products.
The Printer Setup for Calibration dialog box in the Calibration Utility
allows you to select a media file in the
Media File
option. You must
specify the media file that relates to the printer ribbon that your
printer uses.
Check the tables on the following pages to determine which printer
ribbon version (V1.0 or V1.5) your printer is using. Select the
corresponding media file in the Printer Setup for Calibration
Media File
option when you use the Calibration Utility.
If you switch from the V1.0 ribbon to the new V1.5 ribbon, you must
download new calibration tables to your printer. To do this, use the
installation procedure “Using the Calibration Utility to Download
Default Calibration Tables” on page A–4. Alternately, a specially
designed downloader can be obtained from one of these sources:
