Performing Color Calibration
The Microtek Scanner ICC Profiler (MSP) is a scanner calibration and profiling utility
program exclusively designed for Microtek scanners. Used together with the color
calibration target, the ICC Profiler determines the color attributes of your scanner
accurately, then generates an ICC profile tailored exclusively for the scanner you are
using under ScanWizard Pro TX.
The Microtek Scanner ICC Profiler utility is included in the CD-ROM that contains
ScanWizard Pro TX. Select the Microtek Scanner ICC Profiler option to install.
Installing MSP
For Mac OS 9.x users:
Insert the Microtek CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. Open the ICC Profiler folder,
then double-click the Installer icon to install the program.
For Mac OS X users:
Installation is not required. When you install ScanWizard Pro TX, the Scanner ICC
Profiler program is installed as well.
Note: In Mac OS X, do not attempt to uncheck the ICC Profiler option when you
install ScanWizard Pro TX, as this component is essential and the installation
procedure will not allow you to bypass this component.
For PC users:
Insert the Microtek CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. When the software installer
screen appears, click on the “Install” option for the Scanner ICC Profiler program,
then follow the on-screen instructions until the program finishes installing.
Note: The ScanWizard Pro TX program should be already installed in your system
before you install MSP. Otherwise, MSP will not work.
The Color Calibration Target
Included in your scanner package is an industry-standard Transparency Kodak color
target (Kodak Q-60E3, 35mm slide). The calibration target is very delicate and must be
handled carefully, as follows:
Gently remove the target from its protective sleeve and avoid touching the target
image surface.
When not in use, keep the target in its sleeve and away from light and heat.
Note: To keep the colors in your scanner consistent, you should perform color
calibration on a regular basis. Professional photographers, graphic designers or
others who require extremely precise color may wish to calibrate the scanner every
time it is used.
