The panel accepts commands from the user and provides status information to the user about imager functions.2 Film drawers. Each of the three film drawers can hold any of five different sizes of DryView film. You can select the film cartridge in any drawer for printing.FCC ID: PA48E1587 User Manual Part 2
OverviewJune 12, 2003 5E6155 2-3How the Laser Imager Works When the laser imager receives a print request and image data from the modality (image capturing device), the system determines the requested film size from the information included with the image data. The system then selects the appropriate film cartridge.Each time a print request occurs by a modality, the following print sequence occurs.1. Suction cups in the pickup areas lift a single sheet of film out of the supply cartridge and feed the film into the vertical transport rollers.2. The vertical transport rollers move the film down to the film platen (exposure area).3. The platen rollers move the film into the film platen.4. The platen holds the film in a stationary position while the scanner writes the image onto the film.5. The platen rollers move the film into the vertical transport rollers, 3Film transport. The film transport moves the film through the laser imager from the film cartridge to the film platen, then to the film processor and to the film sorter.4Film platen. The film platen positions the film and holds the film stationary for imaging.5Optics module. The optics module writes (exposes) the image onto the film while the film is positioned on the film platen.6 Film processor. The film processor uses heat to develop the image exposed onto the film by the laser in the optics module.7 Densitometer. The densitometer receives the film after it passes through the processor and performs a density check to confirm image quality. The densitometer is the key component of the Automatic Image Quality Control (AIQC) system.8AIQC. The AIQC system ensures that contrast, density, and other image-quality parameters meet preset user preferences.9 Film sorter. The film sorter receives the processed film after the film passes through the densitometer and transports the film to the selected film bin on top of the laser imager. The bottom bin holds 125 sheets of film. Each of the top five bins holds 30 sheets of film.

The film transport rollers move the exposed film through the densitometer and out to one of the six bins.Print Sequence1234567

After power up, the laser imager begins accepting and queueing print jobs. At this point, you can determine cartridge status and load new cartridges if necessary.Film will not begin processing until the laser imager is completely warmed up (approximately 45 minutes).Power Switch (press for two seconds)
Operation and MaintenanceJune 12, 2003 5E6155 3-2Shut Down To shut down the laser imager:1. Touch the Power icon on the local panel.2. Touch the Shut Down button.NOTE: If the laser imager is not expected to be used for an extended period of time (three days or longer), shut down the laser imager.Levels of Operation The laser imager has four levels of operation:NOTE: The reprint capability of the laser imager enables Levels 2, 3, and 4 users to command reprinting of images that may contain patient-identifiable data. Therefore, operation of the system by users at these levels is controlled by a login procedure that can assist users in meeting requirements to control access to such information.Level 1 Operator Activities include printing, clearing of some errors, and removing film jams.
Operation and MaintenanceJune 12, 2003 5E6155 3-3Power Failures In the event of a power loss, the laser imager shuts down. To restore power, push and hold the power switch to the ON position for about 2 seconds.Level 2 Operator(Key Operator) Activities include printing, clearing of some errors, and removing film jams. Also perform minor setup, deleting, and reprinting jobs. Access to Level 2 requires a Key Operator ID and passcode. Refer to “Key Operator Information” on page 3-22 for Key Operator information.Level 3 First Call First Call providers are Kodak-trained and certified self-maintenance customers. Level 3 First Call provides access to all Level 1 and 2 features and functions. Activities include Preventive Maintenance with the ability to reset some of the parameters. Access to Level 3 requires a Level 3 ID and passcode.Level 4 Full Service Full Service providers are Kodak Health Imaging Field Engineers and Kodak Technical Support staff. Level 4 Full Service requires licensing for a specified time interval. Full Service providers have access to all Level 1, 2, and 3 service features. The providers can also access the laser imager through a service computer or through a remote computer connected to the network. Access to Level 4 requires a Service ID and passcode.
