Chapter 2: Operational Safety & Use Conditions Safety Basic Operating Precautions When accessing the machine interior for inspection or servicing, shut down the system by doing the postoperational checks, place the built-in circuit breaker in the OFF (K) position, and turn OFF the main power (external power distribution switch). Inspecting or servicing the inside of the machine with the main power circuit breaker left ON may expose personnel to hazardous conditions and damage the machine. If the machine emits smoke, generates an abnormal sound or its external surface becomes unduly hot, immediately stop using it, place the built-in circuit breaker in the OFF (K) position, unplug the power cable, turn OFF the main power circuit breaker, and contact your local dealer. [1] Do not modify the machine without permission from the manufacturer because safety assurance features and other essential functions may be impaired. If the machine needs to be modified, contact your local dealer. [2] Never remove covers or other parts that are screwed down to avoid the risk of electric shock or injury to personnel. If any parts need to be unscrewed, contact your local dealer. Use only Fujifilm-recommended replacement parts. IMPORTANT: If parts other than those recommended by Fujifilm are used, the warranty will be voided. [3] Do not insert your hands or fingers into the moving parts of the processor while the machine is in operation to avoid the risk of injury. [4] Do not insert your hands or fingers under the scanner section while the machine is in operation to avoid the risk of injury by being caught between the scanner section and carrier. [1] Do not operate the machine with cover open/close sensors forced ON while the covers are open. These sensors serve as safety switches. If they are forced ON, the system mistakenly assumes that the open covers are “closed” making the machine operative, and this may expose personnel to hazardous conditions and damage the machine. Never position objects in close proximity to light sources or processing or dryer section cover vents. Doing so will impair machine ventilation thereby causing temperature control problems. [2] Do not stare at the light emitted from the light source for prolonged periods of © 2006-2008 FUJIFILM Corporation All rights reserved. 5
time because this may damage your eyesight. [3] If anything drops into the machine, remove it after turning OFF the power, or consult your technical representative. If the machine is operated without removing this foreign matter, mechanical failure or abnormal prints may result. [4] Do not use any liquid near the keyboard. If a liquid is spilled on the keyboard, the keyboard may become inoperative due to a short circuit. [5] Do not disconnect the cable connectors located on the rear side of the ICIII unless instructed by your technical representative. If these connectors are disconnected, special operations may be required for checking the system.
Cautions Regarding Electric Shock [1] Utmost care should be taken as the scanner and the processor are connected to a 100/200/210/220/230/240V AC power source. Avoid the possibility of electric shock by noting the following: Never operate the machine if it is wet. Never operate the machine if the surrounding floor is wet. Ensure the electrical earth connection is permanently made. Ensure that all cables are undamaged and correctly connected. [2] Do not place items such as a cup, plastic bottle, vase, vessel of water, etc. on the scanner or processor. If the contents (coffee, tea, water, etc.) are spilled, electric shock to personnel, short circuit in the machine or other accidents may occur. [3] Connect the power cable of the scanner to the outlet having the capacity of 10 amperes or higher, and position the cable so that it does not get in the way of the operator. If the operator steps on the power cable while working, electric shock to personnel or abnormal operation may result. [4] Do not pull the cables forcibly. If the cables are handled roughly, electric shock to personnel or abnormal operation may result. [5] When connecting the power cable to an outlet, take care not to overload the outlet or wiring accessories such as power strips. Overloading may result in fire due to heat generation. [6] Be sure to connect the power cable to the outlet completely. Incomplete connection may cause fire or electric shock to personnel. [7] When disconnecting the power cable, be sure to hold the plug. Pulling the power cable may cause electric shock to personnel or fire due to a short circuit. [8] Do not handle the power cable with wet hands to avoid the risk of electric shock. [9] During a thunderstorm, do not touch the machine, power cable, or plug to avoid the risk of electric shock.

Room Conditions Temperature: 15° to 30°C (59° to 86°F) Ambient room temperatures above 30°C (86°F) or below 15°C (59°F) will destabilize processing and replenisher solution temperatures to the detriment of processing performance. Pay special attention to room temperatures in wintertime and maintain solution temperatures within designated ranges.
Relative Humidity: 30% to 70% Relative humidity above 70% will result in inadequate paper transport or improper paper drying, thus producing abnormal prints. Maintain the ambient room relative humidity within the range of 30% to 70% RH at all times. Do not expose the processor to the wind blowing from the air conditioner or a room fan. Otherwise the ambient temperature and humidity cannot be measured correctly and insufficient paper drying may result.
Ventilation Provide an outside air vent close to the processor section and maintain adequate ventilation.
Illumination: 500 lux or lower Maintain room illumination levels so that no more than 500 lux falls on the scanner and printer upper surfaces. Should the equipment main body or paper magazine be exposed to direct outside light or strong reflected light, use curtains or blinds to shield the equipment from such extraneous light.
REFERENCE Two 40W fluorescent lamps provide 500 lux of illumination at a distance of 1 meter (3.3 ft.). Excessively high indoor illumination levels will adversely affect the quality of finished prints.

Monitor and ICIII Handling Precautions If anything unusual occurs during operation, such as smoke, strange noise, peculiar odor, etc., disconnect the power plug immediately and contact your dealer. If you continue using the equipment in that situation, fire, electric shock or a breakdown may result. For details, refer to the operating instructions for the monitor. In case you spill liquid or drop something into the housing, disconnect the power plug immediately and contact your local dealer. Do not obstruct air vents. Do not place the monitor close to magnetic fields.
ICIII To prevent damage to the system, abide by the following points. • • • •
Do not install any application software other than those described in this manual without Fujifilm’s consent. Do not modify the data structure or data in the hard disk. Do not open the ICIII or other equipment without the consent of Fujifilm’s service representative. Do not add to or modify expansion cards or RAM cards.
Do not reboot using the [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Del] keys. To shut down the system, perform the post-operational check.

Media Handling IMPORTANT Before removing the media from the media reader or drive, make sure that the access LED has completely gone out. If it is removed while the LED is still lit, the data in the media may be corrupted. IMPORTANT If the system is turned off or shut down while reading the data, corruption of data may occur. Make sure not to turn off ICIII or media drives. To prevent unexpected data loss, it is strongly recommended to use a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply).
IMPORTANT For SD/Memory Stick/Compact Flash: Keep the following points in mind when handling or storing the media. Make sure dust or debris does not collect on the terminal.
Do not damage or drop the media. Do not place the media near a heat source. Do not leave the media in a high-temperature, high-humidity place for a long time. For CD: Keep the following points in mind when handling or storing the CD. Make sure dust or debris does not collect on the reading surface of the CD. To remove any dust or debris adhering to the reading surface, use a soft cloth to wipe it off, starting from the center and moving to the outside. When wiping off dust or debris, never use any solvent such as benzine, thinner, anti-static cleaner. For FD or/and MO: Never open the shutter to touch the disk. If the shutter is open, close it before inserting it into the drive. Do not place the media near a heat source. Do not leave the media in a high-temperature, high-humidity place for a long time.

Adjusting Images The following sections define the image adjustment features of the MS01 software.
Using the Adjust Images Setup 1 Tab In this section, you will learn about Adjust Image’s: Auto Correction feature (see page 53). Scene Correction feature (see page 53). Red Eye Correction feature (see page 53). Noise Reduction feature (see page 54). Monotone feature (see page 54). Custom channels (see page 54).
Auto Correction Toggling the Auto Correction button to the On position applies pre-defined Fuji proprietary parameters for color correction, density and sharpness.
Scene Correction This button adjusts the contrast based on the selected option. The options for this button are designed to represent the lighting conditions when the picture was taken. The Cloudy Sky is designed to add contrast to the image since a cloudy sky has a tendency to “flatten” images. Backlight is designed to brighten the part of the image that is in the foreground. Strobe is designed to add more contrast and brightness to the background part of the image. Standard is part of the Auto Correction tool. None applies no adjustments to the selected image.
Red Eye Correction Toggling the Red Eye Correction button to the On position automatically corrects red eye on selected images.
© 2006-2008 FUJIFILM Corporation All rights reserved. 53
Noise Reduction Toggling the Noise Reduction button to the On position will remove extra, granular noise from an image. Using this feature may soften the look of the image.
Monotone Turning this feature on enables the operator to convert an image to BW (Black and White), Sepia 1 (shades of brown), Sepia 2 (a mixture of black and white and sepia), User BW (user defined settings for black and white), or User Sepia1 (user defined settings for Sepia 1). The user-defined BW and Sepia options can be configured in the Maintenance program. In Support mode (or any other mode that allows access to the Start menu), click Start > Maintenance. Select 04 Image Settings > 0401 ImageAdjustOptions. Change the values in the dialog box to customize the User BW, User Sepia 1, and User Sepia 2 options.
Smooth Skin Turning this feature on enables the operator to reduce the skin texture displayed on the image. Toggling the button again turns the feature off.

Custom Channels The Custom Channel drop down menu allows the selection of user created custom channels.
>>> To access custom channel settings 1
In the Adjust Images dialog box, click the Setup button. The Custom Channels dialog box opens.
2
Double-click an empty row. The New Channel Setup dialog box opens.
3
Click OK. When a new custom channel is created, the Channel Settings dialog box opens.
© 2006-2008 FUJIFILM Corporation All rights reserved. 55
>>> To set the new channel name: In the Channel Name field, type a name for the new channel. In this example, it was named Hyper-sharpness off. It is useful if the name gives some type of indication of what the channel will do to the selected image(s) when the custom channel is used.
>>> Sharpness and Color Balance tab: In this tab there are three areas of control. The Channel Color Balance group box features enable the operator to change an image using customizable CMY values. The Sharpness Process area allows the operator to change the image based on predefined sharpness levels. If the radio button is set to USM (Unsharp Mask), the Sharpness level options below this field are enabled and allow the operator to change the sharpness of the image based on predefined values. If the Sharpness Process is set to OFF, no sharpness is applied to the selected image(s) when this custom channel is selected. The Sharpness Level area is only available if USM is selected in the Sharpness Process field. Once enabled, the operator can choose which of the seven different settings needed to adjust the sharpness of the image(s). The normal and high settings will apply varying degrees of sharpness to the image when the channel is applied. The low setting will de-focus (i.e., provide soft focus to) the image when applied.
© 2006-2008 FUJIFILM Corporation All rights reserved. 56
>>> Gamma Adjust, Basic Color Mode, and Bright Mode tab: There are three different areas on this tab: Graduation Adjust, Basic Color Mode, and Bright Mode.
Graduation Adjust: Graduation is a consistent and gradual change from the highlight of an image to the shadow. The values are preset to accomplish smooth changes with varying contrasts. Basic Color Mode: This control adjusts the contrast of flesh tones. Standard is a special mathematical formula for a standard scene. Portrait mode tends to make flesh tones smoother by lowering the contrast of the skin tones. Other objects in the scene can also be affected and the result can be a slightly lower contrast print. Bright Mode: This control adjusts the saturation without affecting the flesh tones in the image. By selecting +4, the saturation of all colors except flesh tones are increased. In contrast, if the operator selects -2, all the colors except flesh tones are de-saturated. >>> Saturation and Auto Correction tab: This tab has several different areas that can be used to adjust the Saturation of the image(s) selected. These areas are Auto Correction, Monotone Setup, Scene Curve, and Saturation Setting.
Auto Correction: With this setting the operator can individually adjust the Density and/or the Color Correction setting when Auto Correction is selected. When Auto Correction in the Adjust tool is set to ON, this adjustment to the Density and Color Correction is applied. The button must be set to ON for these changes to go into effect. Monotone Setup: Clicking this button allows the operator to convert the image to BW (Black and White), Sepia 1 (shades of brown), Sepia 2 (a mixture of black and white and sepia), User BW (user defined settings for black and white), User Sepia 1 (user defined settings for Sepia 1), or User Sepia 2 (user © 2006-2008 FUJIFILM Corporation All rights reserved. 57
defined settings for Sepia 2). The user-defined BW and Sepia options can be configured in the Maintenance program. In Support mode (or any mode that allows access to the Start Menu), click Start > Maintenance. Select 04 ImageSettings > 0401 ImageAdjustOptions. Change the values in this dialog to customize the User BW, User Sepia 1, and User Sepia 2 settings. Scene Curve: This button adjusts the contrast based on the selected option. The options for this button are designed to represent the lighting when the picture was taken. The Cloudy Sky is designed to add contrast to the image since a cloudy sky has the tendency to “flatten” images. Backlight is designed to brighten the part of the image that is in the foreground. Strobe is designed to add more contrast and brightness to the background part of the image. Standard is part of Auto Correction. None does not apply any adjustments to the image. Saturation Setting: This setting adjusts the saturation of the image for all the colors in the image. This setting can go from -9 (removes all color and makes the image black and white) to 9 (saturates all the colors of the image).
© 2006-2008 FUJIFILM Corporation All rights reserved. 58
Using the Adjust Images Setup 2 Tab In this section, you will learn about Adjust Image’s: Saturation feature (see page 59). Tone Adjust feature (see page 59). Bright Mode feature (see page 59). Basic Color Mode feature (see page 59). Sharpness feature (see page 60).
Saturation The Saturation button controls how vivid colors are in the image.
This setting ranges from -9 (removes all color and makes the image black and white) to 9 (saturates all the colors of the image) and can be set by using the drop-down menu on the Saturation button.
Tone Adjust Selecting this feature will adjust the contrast and shadows of the image based on preconfigured settings.
Using the different settings within this feature will adjust the contrast and shadows to varying degrees, based on the selected setting. For example, if Hard 2 is selected, the contrast and shadows will be harder than if Soft 1 is selected.
Bright Mode This button adjusts the saturation without changing the flesh tones of the image.
By selecting +4, the saturation of all colors except the flesh tones is increased. In contrast, if the operator selects -2, all the colors except the flesh tones are de-saturated.
Basic Color Mode This button adjusts the contrast of flesh tones. Standard is a special mathematical formula for a standard scene.
Portrait mode tends to make flesh tones smoother by lowering the contrast of the skin tones. Other objects in the scene can also be affected and the result can be a slightly lower contrast print.
© 2006-2008 FUJIFILM Corporation All rights reserved. 59
Sharpness This button controls the clarity of detail in the selected image(s) by slightly adjusting color around edges. Options in the drop-down menu range from High 3 to Low 3.
Skin Tone Customization Selecting this feature opens a Skin Tone Customization dialog box with sliders for Hue, Saturation, Light, and Tone. These allow you to increase or decrease the color, the purity of the color, the lightness/darkness, and the contrast.
© 2006-2008 FUJIFILM Corporation All rights reserved. 60
Using the Adjust Images Setup 3 Tab In this section, you will learn about Adjust Image’s Setup 3 Tab: Additional Tools feature (see page 61). Curves (look-up table) feature (see page 63). Retouch feature (see page 65). Rotate feature (see page 65). Colorspace (see page 65). Pan feature (see page 65). Zoom feature (see page 66).
Additional Tools This button opens a three-tabbed window allowing the operator to implement overall color balance, brightness, contrast, and more.
All Tab: Allows the user to adjust the Cyan/Red, Magenta/Green, and Yellow/Blue globally to the selected image(s). In this tab the operator can also control Brightness, Saturation, Contrast, and the Sharpness of the image(s) selected. All the slider bars can be dragged to the desired spot OR the colored buttons at the end of the slider can be clicked to advance the slider towards the button clicked. Clicking the colored button at the end of the slider moves the slider one step closer to the clicked colored buttons. Also the operator can right-click anywhere on the slider bar and the slider will immediately move to that location.
© 2006-2008 FUJIFILM Corporation All rights reserved. 61
Set Points: White Point, Black Point, and Neutral Point re-define the RGB (Red, Green, Blue) density, balance and saturation standards for an image. Set White Points (highlights), Neutral Points (point where all colors are the same value), and Black Points (shadows) to define the standards for the image. White Point’s “Value” and Black Point’s “Black Toe” set limits. For instance, if a highlight or glare is distracting, the operator can reset the white point to a lower value to decrease the glare. Or, to see more detail in a shadow area the operator can reset the black point to a higher black toe.
Highlights/Shadows: The sliders on this tab allow the operator to adjust an area that has minimal image detail, such as reflections from glass or polished metal, or adjust the darkest area in an image. All the slider bars can be dragged to the desired spot OR the colored buttons at the end of the slider can be clicked to advance the slider towards the button clicked. Clicking the colored button at the end of the slider moves the slider two steps closer to the clicked colored buttons at the end of the slider.
© 2006-2008 FUJIFILM Corporation All rights reserved. 62
Histogram: The operator can use the histogram to adjust the tonal values of an image. When the operator double-clicks the histogram, the adjustment buttons automatically move to the closest measurable value. Manually slide the highlight, midtone, or shadow adjustment sliders to the desired location. The image changes accordingly.
