To prevent damage to the system, abide by the following points.
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.

There are two ways to create an order, in Auto or Semi mode, based on when the operator inserts the
film.
Important: Verify that the film guide on the carrier matches the size of the film the operator is ready to scan.
Important: Certain
features, such as P. Set, P. Size, and H/P/HV settings, are not available in Auto and
Semi modes.

>>> Creating Prints from Film in Auto or Semi Mode by Pre-scanning the film
One way to create an order is to insert the film first. The pre-scan is done while the operator enters order
information.
1
From the Order Entry screen, select either Auto or Semi from
the drop-down menu in the Scan mode group.
While the system pre-scans the film, scan the barcode or enter
the Order ID in the Envelope ID field.
If Auto Order ID generation is enabled, the operator can use
the Order ID automatically entered in the Envelope ID field,
delete it and enter another one, or scan the Order ID with the
barcode scanner to populate the field with that code from the
envelope.
Select either Color, Black & White, or Slide from the Film
Type drop-down menu, if necessary.
Use the drop-down menus to select an alternate to the default: Print size, Paper surface, Output
tone.
Note: Scan Only saves images and sends them to the MS for later use.
In the Export drop-down menu, the operator can choose between exporting an image with normal
resolution or a high resolution (good for producing 8x12 prints).
10
11
Select the Retain Print Settings check box to retain the size,
surface, and color settings between orders if desired.
12
Click Start.
The scanning process begins.
The Order Entry screen is minimized and the View Images screen opens.
13
If the operator selects Semi as the scan mode, the system scans six images at a time and the
operator can correct the color and density on each image as necessary. Press Enter to scan the
next set of six images.
If the operator selects Auto as the scan mode, the system also scans six images at a time without
requiring the operator to press <Enter>. Pressing any key on the keyboard will stop the Auto Mode
and will allow image adjustments as in Semi Mode.
With Semi or Auto scan modes, the operator cannot change the print size or quantity once the scan
begins.
When scanning is complete, the Sort dialog opens, followed by the View Orders screen.
For film strips with 11 or less frames, the operator must manually issue the sort using the <Sort>
key.
>>> Creating Prints from Film in Auto or Semi Mode by Entering Order
Information before Inserting the Film
The operator can also create an order by inserting the film after all order information is entered. If this
method is used, the film feeds automatically and the operator does not need to click Start.
1
From the Order Entry screen, select either Auto or Semi under
the Scan mode group.
Scan the bar code on the envelope or enter the Order ID in the
Envelope ID field.
If Auto Order ID generation is enabled, the operator can use the Order ID automatically entered in
the Envelope ID field, delete it and enter another one, or scan the Order ID with the barcode
scanner to populate the field with that code from the envelope.
3
Use the spin control to select a time, or type in the time the order
is due in the Due by field.
Select Hot Job to send the job to the top of the queue, if necessary.
Select either Color, Black & White, or Slide in the Film Type
group.
Use the drop-down menus to select an alternate to the default: Print size, Paper surface, Output
tone
10

operator can correct the color and density on each image as necessary. Press <Enter> to scan the
next set of six images.
If the operator selects Auto as the scan mode, the system also scans six images at a time without
requiring the operator to press <Enter>. Pressing any key on the keyboard will stop the Auto Mode
and will allow image adjustments as in Semi Mode.
With Semi or Auto scan modes, the operator cannot change the print size or quantity once the scan
begins.
When scanning is complete, the Sort dialog opens, followed by the View Orders screen. For film
strips with 11 or less frames, the operator must manually issue the sort using the blue Finish Order
button.
An End Order dialog box opens. The operator must click OK to end the order.
Use the spin control to select a time, or type in the time the order
is due in the Due by field.
Select Hot Job to send the job to the top of the queue, if
necessary.
Select either Color, Black & White, or Slide from the Film
Type drop-down menu.
Use the drop-down menus to select an alternate to the default: Print size, Paper surface, and/or
Output tone.
Note: Do NOT modify the package (print) selection in between rolls (i.e. if 4x6 prints were selected
for roll 1, do not select 5x7 prints for roll 2 or roll 1 prints will print as 5 x 7 s.
The borders shown in this example are only available for 4x6-sized prints. All other sizes have a
thin white border or a thin white border with the date in the lower right corner.

film, click Check In. The job immediately closes and goes to MS01.
When the operator is ready to scan the job, they can scan the bar
code on the envelope or enter the Order ID in the Envelope ID field
and press <Enter>. The order opens with the pre-selected settings.
14
Click Start and insert the film. When complete, the View Orders screen returns to focus.
After the first roll is scanned, enter the number for the next roll in the Film ID field and insert the

scanner software.
Adjusting Images
The following sections define the image adjustment features of the MS01 software.
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.
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.
Click OK.
When a new custom channel is created, the
Channel Settings dialog box opens.
>>> 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

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.
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.
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.
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.
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 Points Value and Black
Points 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.
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.
Curves
The operator can use the Look-up Tables (LUT) to make repeatable color adjustments to the image.
Load a pre-existing LUT or create a new LUT to save and use for other jobs or images.
