Scale to Fit will cause the image to be magnified or reduced to fit the image to the film, without
regard to what the Detector Size value is. The 8600 can print a pixel matrix of 5025 x 6200 pixels in a
spatial dimension of 194.7 mm x 240.25 mm. (An 8600 pixel is 0.03875 mm.) A 2000 x 2000 pixel
image will be magnified to fill up an area of 194.7 mm x 194.7 mm if Scale to Fit is used in a 1:1
format. If the image is too large to be accommodated in the maximum available image area for the
specified format, it will be minified so it can fit on the printable area of film. Images that are still too
large to print after minification down to 1.00 will not be printed, and an "image too large to print" error
will be generated.
16. Detector Size
Detector Size defines the size of the pixels in the image to be printed, and thus determines the actual
image size. The term also refers to the size of the pixel used when the image was acquired from the
modality. The intrinsic size of a DryView 8600 pixel is 38.75 microns (a micron = 1/1000 of a
millimeter). The 8600 will accept pixel sizes from a modality from 10 to 250 microns. When images
are printed at a value other than the intrinsic imager pixel size, the image will be interpolated. The
Detector Size parameter is irrelevant and thus unused when Image Size is set to Scale to Fit.
Use the following chart to set the parameters for the appropriate Setup menu items. As stated
previously, the settings of the Density, Contrast, and Sharp/Smooth menu items in the 8600 should
have no effect on the printed image, because these values are defined in the 9410 or by the modality.
However, it is still a good practice to enter the following values into the 8600 so that they equate to
the OEM recommendations that you will define when setting up the 9410.

2-3. Setting up the 9410
The 9410 is being used as a print server, since it accepts DICOM image data from the modality and
converts it to digital host control protocol for the 8600 to print the images. As shown in Figure 1, the
9410/8600 interconnection cable is connected between the COPSIL board in the 9410 and the Digital
Input Board in the 8600. In addition, an Ethernet cable needs to be connected between the RJ-45
jack on the 9410 and the customer's RJ-45 network connection.
Once the customer's network administrator assigns an IP address for the 8600/9410, follow the
procedure in paragraph 3-10-3-7 of the PACS Link 9410 Acquisition System Service Manual to enter
the customer network parameters. Continue with the setup of the 9410 and use the following Device
Setup parameters for DICOM Inputs and Local Output menus.
