Monitor set-up

The monitor used with the scanner should be properly set up and calibrated.
This will ensure that the image on the screen is displayed as accurately as
possible within the characteristics of the particular monitor.
To obtain the best possible viewing conditions for judging images on the
screen, do not place the monitor where daylight coming from a window will
fall directly onto the screen. Not only will strong daylight make it difficult to
view the screen, but natural light is subject to subtle variations throughout
the day and throughout the year. This can have an effect on how images
appear on the screen.
The ambient lighting should be even and controlled. If possible, use
5000K lights.

Conditions for viewing originals and prints

Originals, proofs and printed copies of images should be judged under con-
trolled lighting conditions. To avoid the problems that can arise when an image
is viewed under different lighting conditions in different places, special viewing
booths are used.
Viewing booths usually have 5000K lighting, which is the accepted stan-
dard for viewing graphic images, and a neutral gray background. The gray
background avoids the occurrence of undesirable color reflections that can
affect the appearance of an image. The ScanMate F10's built-in light table
also has 5000K lighting.
If you use an external viewing booth, choose one that conforms to the
recognized standards in your country.
