FCC ID: PA48E1587 User Manual Part 3 Operation and Maintenance Returned cartridges are carefully inspected. Only components that meet strict quality standards are reused. Components that do not meet the standards are sent to recycling centers for reclamation. This program is part of Kodak’s commitment to reduce the environmental impact of our products. To recycle your empty film cartridges: 1. Replace your empty film cartridges in their original packages. Return as few or as many as you like each time. You can tape up to three packages together and return them with a single label. 2. Apply a prepaid bar-coded shipping label to each package. Kodak labels are free of charge. 3. Call FedEx Ground at 1-800-463-3339 (U.S. only). Mention this program, and arrange for pickup the next working day. Include a signed “Return Pickup Record” with the packages when they are picked up. You will find one on the back of each shipping label. To get your Kodak mailing labels, contact your authorized Kodak distributor. For additional information on the Kodak Recycling Program in the U.S. and Canada, visit the Kodak Web Site: www.kodak.com/go/KES Requesting a Calibration Test Print To request a calibration print (step wedge): NOTE: The system will interrupt a multi-sheet print job to produce the calibration print. 1. On the System Functions screen, touch the Calibration button. 2. Touch the desired Drawer button. 3. Touch the Print button. Requesting a Density Test To request a Density test print: 1. On the System Functions screen, touch the Density button. 2. Touch the desired Drawer button. 3. Touch the Print button. Automatic Image Quality The built-in densitometer is a key component in the patented Automatic Control (AIQC) Image Quality Control (AIQC) process. The AIQC feature allows the laser imager to automatically monitor and adjust density, contrast, and other June 12, 2003 5E6155 3-18 Operation and Maintenance image quality parameters to ensure optimum image quality by monitoring the density patch printed on each film. The laser imager adjusts the parameters each time the laser imager prints a calibration film to ensure image consistency from film-to-film and lot-tolot. A calibration film is printed whenever: • AIQC detects that a new film lot number has been loaded. • You request a calibration test from the local panel. • A calibration has not been performed on a film cartridge for 7 days. Operating in Manual Mode Under normal conditions, the AIQC is running to maintain consistent image-quality parameters. If errors occur, such as calibration failure, you will have the option to operate in manual mode until the error is corrected. A film calibration failure is often film related. If you load a new film cartridge, the error is usually corrected. If the error reoccurs with a new film cartridge, call for support (see “Calling for Support” on page 4-25). Until the condition is corrected, you can run the laser imager in manual mode, without AIQC. Operator Maintenance Cleaning the Laser Imager Clean the outside surfaces of the laser imager as necessary. Use a soft cloth with warm water and mild soap. CAUTION: Do not use isopropyl alcohol to clean the exterior surfaces of the laser imager. Isopropyl alcohol can dissolve the exterior paint on the laser imager. Installing New Charcoal Filters Two charcoal filters are in a filter holder that is mounted on the back of the laser imager. Install new filters after every 20,000 film cycles. NOTE: Kodak Field Engineers routinely install new filters during the 20,000 film cycle Preventive Maintenance procedure. You only need to change filters if you do not have a Kodak Preventive Maintenance Plan. CAUTION: Filters are considered to be non-hazardous waste by the US June 12, 2003 5E6155 3-19 Operation and Maintenance EPA Resource Recovery Act. Under RCRA, you may dispose of the filters in a landfill or incinerator with energy recovery in a municipal, commercial or industrial facility. Contact your state or local government to determine if additional disposal requirements apply. Latches Filter cover Charcoal filters Filter holder Replacing the Charcoal Filters To install new filters: 1. Open the 2 latches and pull the filter holder forward. 2. Remove the two used charcoal filters. 3. Vacuum the filter holder, if necessary. 4. Record on the label of each of the new filters: • Cycle count • Date 5. Install the two new filters. 6. Close the filter holder and the 2 latches. June 12, 2003 5E6155 3-20 Operation and Maintenance 7. Discard the 2 used filters. Preventive Maintenance To maintain optimum performance from the laser imager, Kodak recommends that preventive maintenance is completed by a Kodak authorized Service Provider after every 20,000 film cycles. The Status screen displays a “Preventive Maintenance” icon when the film count reaches 20,000 sheets of film. You can also monitor the “Prints to PM” line on the System Information screen. Preventive Maintenance includes: • Installation of new charcoal filters • Image assembly cleaning • Film processor cleaning Call Service to schedule preventive maintenance (see “Calling for Support” on page 4-25).

Image Resizing Icons June 12, 2003 If an image has been resized or cropped, an icon appears on the bottom corner of the film. There are three types of icons that appear. 5E6155 3-33 Operation and Maintenance • Crop. The image perimeter is removed to allow the image to fit on the film and print at the same scale as the anatomical area of interest. An image might be cropped if it is too large to print on the selected film size, and the size of the area of interest is important to retain. CAUTION: If anatomical areas of interest are near an outer edge of the image, they might be removed from the image when it is printed. • Minify. The image file is reduced by the removal of pixel data. An image might be minified if the image size is larger than the media in the imager. For example, a computer radiography (CR) image is requested to print 35 x 43 cm at the imager with 8x10 in. (20.32x25.4 cm) film selected. The image is minified and printed. • Scale. The image file is reduced in scale. An image file is reduced in scale if it is sent from an image source with a requested image size that is not supported by the imager. The full image is printed, but the size of the image is reduced to allow it to print on the media size that is closest to the requested size. June 12, 2003 5E6155 3-34 4 Troubleshooting Status, Error Messages, and Notifications Occasionally, you may have to correct minor problems. If more serious malfunctions occur, you must contact a trained Kodak Authorized Service Provider. See “Calling for Support” on page 4-25 for more information.

DryView Laser Imaging Film is packaged in daylight load packages, available in blue or clear, 7-mil polyester base, and is available in the following five sizes: • 8 x 10 in. • 10 x 12 in. • 11 x 14 in. • 14 x 14 in. • 14 x 17 in. Spectral Sensitivity June 12, 2003 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. It is not recommended, but if you remove undeveloped film from the daylight load package, you will need a darkroom setting and a green safelight. 5E6155 6-1 Film Technical Information Characteristics Sensitometric 3.5 Density 2.5 1.5 0.5 0.5 1.5 2.5 Relative Log Exposure Image Quality DryView Laser Imaging Film delivers diagnostic-quality, continuous-tone images along with sharp alphanumerics and optimum contrast. This highquality, silver-based film provides radiologists with the same diagnostic information they are accustomed to viewing - including the spatial resolution, contrast and grey levels. Because it is a totally dry imaging process, there is no image quality variability due to “wet” chemistry. Automatic Image Quality DryView Laser Imaging Film is system-matched for the Kodak patented Automatic Image Quality Control (AIQC) technology. This fully automated Control system, which is a standard feature of DryView Laser Imagers, is designed to ensure that contrast, density and other image quality parameters meet preset user preferences, film-to-film, lot-to-lot. An RF-TAG mounted on each film cartridge lets the laser imager automatically determine film type, the number of sheets remaining, and the film manufacturing lot. The AIQC uses this information to automatically calibrate the imager's electronics and optimize image quality without operator intervention. The AIQC system reads a special density patch printed on each sheet of DryView Laser Imaging Film as it passes through a built-in densitometer. June 12, 2003 5E6155 6-2 Film Technical Information Slight density variations are corrected automatically. 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 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 not 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 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° F/5° C to 77° F/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. If the AIQC encounters film that has been damaged by improper handling, the AIQC will automatically alert system operators. Handling Developed Film Handling DryView Laser Imaging Film requires reasonable care. Spills, humidity and other moisture typically have no significant effect on June 12, 2003 5E6155 6-3 Film Technical Information developed films. However, prolonged exposure to intense light or excessive heat (130° F/54.4° C) for more than 3 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), Kodak recommends removing them prior to 8 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 (i.e., typically 0.02 change in density). This small density increase is uniform and permanent upon full exposure of the film under normal handling conditions (i.e., 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 June 12, 2003 5E6155 6-4 Film Technical Information periodic replacement. DryView Laser Imagers require no special venting. 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.
