is a continuous-tone laser imager with an internal photothermographic film processor. Heat, rather than photo chemicals, is used to develop the film. The Laser Imager prints images on KODAK DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film, which is packed in 125-sheet cartridges. Depending on the configuration of your Imager, you can load up to three cartridges simultaneously. Intended Use The DRYVIEW 6850 Laser Imaging System (DRYVIEW 6850 Laser Imager) is intended to provide high-resolution hard copy images from digital imaging source output signals. The device is intended for use with DRYVIEW media including DVM (DRYVIEW Mammography) films. The imager will interface with a variety of digital modalities, including, but not limited to, CR (Computed Radiology), DR (Digital Radiology), CT (Computerized Tomography), MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and FFDM (Full Field Digital Mammography). Image resizing is used to preserve true geometric size images. The images are to be used for medical diagnosis and referral to physicians and their patients. 2010-11-04 2G8647 1-1 Overview System Components 1-2 Film drawers. Your Imager may be configured for one, two, or three film drawers. Each film drawer can hold any of five different sizes of DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film. You can select the film cartridge in any drawer for printing. Film registration. The film registration orients and centers the film while moving the film from the film drawers to the imaging portion of the Imager. Film imaging. The optics module writes the image onto the film while the film is moved through the exposure transport. Film processor. The film processor uses heat to develop the image written onto the film by the laser in the optics module. Densitometer. The densitometer receives the film after it passes through the processor and performs a density check to confirm image quality when a calibration is run. Film sorter. Your Imager may be configured without a sorter. The film sorter receives the processed film and transports the film to the selected film bin on top of the Laser Imager. Each of the five bins holds 50 sheets of film. 2G8647 2010-11-04 Overview Local panel. The local panel contains the power button used to turn power ON/OFF for the Imager during normal operations. It also contains the touch screen. Touch screen. The touch screen is your interface to the Laser Imager. The screen accepts your commands and gives you status information about Imager functions. How the Laser Imager Works When the Laser Imager receives a print request, it determines the requested film size and type then selects the appropriate film cartridge. Each time the Imager receives a print request, the following print sequence occurs. Print Sequence 1. Suction cups in the pickup area lift a single sheet of film out of the supply cartridge and feed the film into the transport rollers. 2. The transport rollers move the film down into the registration transport area, where film registration takes place. 2010-11-04 2G8647 1-3 Overview 3. The film registration transport then moves the film into the exposure transport. 4. As the film moves through the exposure transport, the optics module writes the image onto the film, then moves the film into the film processor. 5. As the film passes over the processor drum, the heat generated by the drum develops the film. 6. The film transport rollers move the developed film through the densitometer to the sorter and out to one of the bins. Film Throughput Prints up to 160 films (35 x 43 cm or 14 x 17 in.) per hour. Smaller film sizes print more quickly. Agency Compliance See the DRYVIEW 6850 Laser Imager Safety Manual, 2G8646.

Very little operator control is required. The main responsibilities of the operator are: • turning Imager power ON and OFF. • loading film cartridges. • taking recommended actions when preventive maintenance (PM) or a filter maintenance request is indicated on the touch screen. • monitoring and controlling some Imager functions using the touch screen. Turning Imager Power ON and OFF Local panel Power button Power switch There is a power switch and a power button on the 6850 Laser Imager. The power switch should only be used the first time the Imager is powered ON or when an immediate shutdown is required. For normal operations, use the power button. 2010-11-04 2G8647 2-1 Using and Maintaining the Imager Power ON IMPORTANT: After the initial startup of the Imager, the power button on the local panel should be used to power ON and power OFF the Imager. If this is the first time the Imager has been powered ON, set the power switch to the "|" (ON) position and press the power button on the local panel. The Imager performs a power-up self test that takes about five minutes. After the self test, there are some initial boot-up screens before the local panel Main Screen appears. After the power-up test, the Imager begins a warm-up period that can last up to 30 minutes. The warm-up period varies depending on how long the Imager has been turned OFF, the ambient temperature, and whether the Imager is in power save mode. During warm-up, the Imager can receive and store images but cannot print films. When the Imager reaches operating temperature, it starts printing any images accumulated during the warm-up period. During warm-up, you can use the touch screen to check the contents of the film drawers and to open the film drawers to load new film cartridges if necessary. Normal Power OFF IMPORTANT: The local panel should be used to turn OFF power to the imager, except in an emergency. Using the main power switch could cause the imager to shut down incorrectly and possibly cause some corruption of the operating system. Turn the Imager OFF if you do not expect to use it for an extended period of time. 1. On the local panel, press the power button. 2. On the touch screen, touch: • Power OFF • OK All films in process will be completed before the Imager does a controlled shutdown (similar to a computer shutdown). Emergency Power OFF 2-2 If an emergency arises that requires the immediate shutdown of the Imager, press the power switch "O" (OFF) at the lower right front of the Imager. The Imager will shut down. Films in process will not be completed and will remain where they are until removed (see “Correcting Film Jams With the Imager Powered OFF” on page 3-2). To restart the Imager, press the power switch "|" (ON). After warming up, the Imager automatically reprints any films that were in process when power was interrupted. 2G8647 2010-11-04 Using and Maintaining the Imager Power Failures In the event of a power loss, the 6850 Laser Imager shuts down. Films in process will not be completed and will remain where they are until they are removed (see “Correcting Film Jams With the Imager Powered OFF” on page 3-2). To restart the Imager after power is restored, turn OFF the power switch on the Imager and then turn it ON. After warming up, the Imager automatically reprints any films that were in process when power was interrupted. NOTE: If the Imager does not restart after pressing the power switch, press the power button on the local panel (see “Turning Imager Power ON and OFF” on page 2-1). Power Save The Imager has a Power Save option, which lets you reduce the power consumption of the Imager during periods of inactivity. To learn more about the Power Save option, see the general help information on the touch screen (see “General Help” on page 2-6).

DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film is a high-resolution, infrared-sensitive, photothermographic film designed specifically for the family of DRYVIEW Laser Imagers. DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film is packaged in daylight-load packages and is available in blue, clear, and mammography 7-mil polyester base. Spectral Sensitivity DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film is infrared sensitive and has been sensitized to the infrared laser diode of DRYVIEW Laser Imagers. When handled according to instructions on the daylight-load film package, safelights are not needed. If you remove undeveloped film from the daylight-load package, you will need a darkroom setting and a green safelight. 3.5 2.5 1.5 0.5 0.5 1.5 2.5 Relative Log Exposure (Example) Image Quality 2010-11-04 DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film delivers diagnostic-quality, continuous-tone images along with sharp alphanumerics and optimum contrast. This high-quality, silver-based film provides health care providers with the same diagnostic information they are accustomed to viewing — including the spatial resolution, contrast, and gray levels. Because it is a totally dry imaging process, there is no image quality variability due to “wet” chemistry. 2G8647 5-1 Film Technical Information Environmental Impact Tests show that DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film is not considered hazardous to the environment. As a result, you can develop, recycle, and dispose of film with less impact on the environment than if you were using wet-developed silver halide films. DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film US Environmental Regulations Comparison Wet Silver Halide Developer DRYVIEW Film Fixer Wash Film Film Product Regulations OSHA MSDS Required Required Not required Not required Provided DOT Hazardous Hazardous No limits No limits No limits Use permits Local Local None None None Disposal* Regulations EPA Hazardous Hazardous No No No DOT Hazardous Hazardous No No No Note: There is no SUPERFUND liability with DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film. * State and local laws vary. Consult appropriate regulations or authorities prior to disposal. Storing and Handling Undeveloped Film 5-2 To achieve consistent results up to the expiration date indicated on the film package, DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film must be stored in a cool, dry place (41° to 77°F/5° to 25°C) and protected from radiation and chemistry fumes. The film can withstand short-term temperature spikes (up to 95°F/35°C) for several hours during transit without any significant effect on film quality or performance. Transit temperatures above 95°F/35°C will gradually diminish shelf life. 2G8647 2010-11-04 Film Technical Information Handling Developed Film Handling DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film requires reasonable care. Spills, humidity, and other moisture typically have no significant effect on developed films. However, prolonged exposure to intense light or excessive heat (130°F/54.4°C) for more than three hours may cause some gradual darkening of images. Leaving films in vehicles in hot climates for extended periods of time is not recommended. For best results, store film in sleeves when not being reviewed. DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film can be left on a light box for more than 24 hours; in extreme cases in which light boxes are exceptionally hot (120° F/49°C), Carestream Health recommends removing them prior to eight hours of continuous exposure. Take care when using spotlight viewing for more than 30 seconds because temperatures near the light source may exceed 180° F/82.2°C. Use in slide projectors is not recommended due to the high temperatures generally found in these devices. With DRYVIEW technology, a small amount of final development occurs when the film exits the laser imager and is initially exposed to ambient or view-box lighting. This is virtually undetectable and has no effect on image quality (typically 0.02 change in density). This small density increase is uniform and permanent upon full exposure of the film under normal handling conditions (for example, room light or view box). Archiving Developed Film DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film has been tested and can be archived for more than 100 years when stored at American National Standards Institute (ANSI) recommended storage conditions (77°F/25°C). Developed films may be stored at higher temperatures; however, that may reduce the number of years the film can be stored. For example, storing films at a constant elevated temperature of 90°F/32.2°C may reduce archive capability to 30 years. Exposing to Moisture DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Films typically withstand humidity, spills and other forms of water without any significant effect on image quality or film integrity. If needed, film can be cleaned with a clean, damp cloth. Dissipating Odor DRYVIEW technology eliminates virtually all unpleasant odors. While some low-level odors are produced during the development process, they pose no known adverse health risks. Processing odor levels are further reduced by a non-hazardous, recyclable filter in the laser imager. This filter traps most low-level odors and prevents them from dissipating into the work environment. To help maintain optimum performance, the filter requires periodic replacement. DRYVIEW Laser Imagers require no special venting. 2010-11-04 2G8647 5-3 Film Technical Information Dissipating Heat DRYVIEW Laser Imagers use controlled heat to develop DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film. The heat has virtually no effect on the air temperature of the work area. The amount of heat dissipated into an area during a day is typically less than the heat generated by four 100-watt light bulbs. Recycling Film According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards, DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film is not considered hazardous and requires no special disposal procedures. However, the film does contain silver and polyester that may be recovered by using one of several recycling processes.
