When the OS is Windows XP, refer to section 6 "Wiring (Windows XP)".
3.1 General Precautions for Wiring
(1) Check that the switchboard, the breakers for the units, and the power switch are all
OFF before connecting the power line. (Normally this work will be done after all
wiring is complete.)
(2) Be sure to connect all the cable connectors properly and securely.
(3) Be sure to ground shielded cables at both ends.
(4) Arrange the cables neatly and do not roll up surplus lengths of cable into small
bundles. Doing so may form coils, which may result in malfunctions.

After adjustment, measure the densities, and then repeat adjustment until all the densities are
within the acceptable ranges.
Indicate the measurement results on a datasheet in both numerical and graphical format.
 Use the "cubic spline" interpolation mode at the printer.

 The images displayed on the monitor are subject to smoothing at the monitor
screen and so the film images seem sharper. If the printer incorporates spatial
frequency processing, use smoothing mode.
 With printers that use thermal film, such as the Fuji DryPix 1000 and 3000,
accurate measurement is not possible with a standard density meter. Ask a
representative of the manufacturer to perform measurement with a special
density meter.

When the OS is Windows 7, refer to section 3 "Wiring (Windows 7)".
6.1 General Precautions for Wiring
(1) Check that the switchboard, the breakers for the units, and the power switch are all
OFF before connecting the power line. (Normally this work will be done after all
wiring is complete.)
(2) Be sure to connect all the cable connectors properly and securely.
(3) Be sure to ground shielded cables at both ends.
(4) Arrange the cables neatly and do not roll up surplus lengths of cable into small
bundles. Doing so may form coils, which may result in malfunctions.
