HQ RIP被(bei)幾個廠商作為(wei)軟RIP使用，現(xian)在(zai)在(zai)國(guo)內被(bei)很多印刷廠、輸出中心使用。由于HQ RIP為(wei)英文菜單，因此(ci)對于使用者來說比(bi)較(jiao)麻煩。在(zai)RIP的(de)使用過程中，線性(xing)(xing)化調整(zheng)是經(jing)常(chang)做的(de)工作，我們在(zai)這里介紹一下HQ-510 RIP線性(xing)(xing)化調整(zheng)的(de)做法。

    當顯影機藥(yao)水濃度(du)(du)、顯定影溫度(du)(du)時(shi)間及照排機的光(guang)值(zhi)調整完成(cheng)以后(hou)，在RIP中將頁面設定好，注意(yi)所要調整的精度(du)(du)及網(wang)點(dian)(dian)形狀(zhuang)，不同(tong)的精度(du)(du)、網(wang)點(dian)(dian)形狀(zhuang)、陰片陽片所用的線性化(hua)數據是不同(tong)的。然后(hou)點(dian)(dian)擊菜單(dan)“Output”下的“Print Calibration”菜單(dan)，如(ru)圖(tu)1所示(shi)，出現如(ru)圖(tu)2所示(shi)界面。 

    在此界面(mian)中(zhong)需(xu)要(yao)注(zhu)意的(de)(de)(de)是“Print uncalibrated target”表示(shi)(shi)(shi)輸(shu)(shu)(shu)出(chu)未調整(zheng)過(guo)的(de)(de)(de)曲線(xian)(xian)，“Print calibrated target”表示(shi)(shi)(shi)輸(shu)(shu)(shu)出(chu)調整(zheng)過(guo)的(de)(de)(de)曲線(xian)(xian)。第一次做線(xian)(xian)性(xing)(xing)時，先在“From Page Setup(s)”下(xia)的(de)(de)(de)框(kuang)(kuang)中(zhong)選擇(ze)需(xu)要(yao)輸(shu)(shu)(shu)出(chu)的(de)(de)(de)精度(du)（即(ji)頁面(mian)設定(ding)中(zhong)確定(ding)的(de)(de)(de)精度(du)），然后選擇(ze)輸(shu)(shu)(shu)出(chu)未調整(zheng)過(guo)的(de)(de)(de)曲線(xian)(xian)（Print uncalibrated target）。照排機中(zhong)將(jiang)會輸(shu)(shu)(shu)出(chu)如下(xia)圖形(xing)的(de)(de)(de)線(xian)(xian)性(xing)(xing)化(hua)測試(shi)(shi)條。使(shi)用(yong)透射密(mi)(mi)度(du)計(ji)測量(liang)各(ge)顯示(shi)(shi)(shi)數(shu)值下(xia)方框(kuang)(kuang)中(zhong)實際的(de)(de)(de)網(wang)(wang)點(dian)百(bai)(bai)分(fen)比，記錄(lu)下(xia)來(lai)。（測試(shi)(shi)條中(zhong)的(de)(de)(de)最上(shang)方“Uncalibrated Target for device ‘5055’:uncalibrated”一行(xing)表示(shi)(shi)(shi)此測試(shi)(shi)條是從(cong)設備驅動名(ming)稱為“5055”中(zhong)輸(shu)(shu)(shu)出(chu)的(de)(de)(de)，線(xian)(xian)性(xing)(xing)化(hua)數(shu)據沒有經(jing)過(guo)調整(zheng)；下(xia)邊一部分(fen)的(de)(de)(de)文字表示(shi)(shi)(shi)輸(shu)(shu)(shu)出(chu)的(de)(de)(de)精度(du)、線(xian)(xian)數(shu)、網(wang)(wang)點(dian)角度(du)、網(wang)(wang)點(dian)形(xing)狀(zhuang)；“Max/Min”和下(xia)面(mian)的(de)(de)(de)黑白框(kuang)(kuang)則為實地(di)和空(kong)白部分(fen)，在測量(liang)網(wang)(wang)點(dian)百(bai)(bai)分(fen)比之前，可(ke)用(yong)此兩(liang)框(kuang)(kuang)測量(liang)實地(di)密(mi)(mi)度(du)和在軟片(pian)上(shang)將(jiang)密(mi)(mi)度(du)計(ji)清(qing)零；軟片(pian)中(zhong)間為需(xu)要(yao)測量(liang)網(wang)(wang)點(dian)百(bai)(bai)分(fen)比的(de)(de)(de)區域(yu)，0.0-100.0的(de)(de)(de)數(shu)字為此網(wang)(wang)點(dian)應(ying)達到(dao)的(de)(de)(de)網(wang)(wang)點(dian)百(bai)(bai)分(fen)比數(shu)值，下(xia)面(mian)各(ge)有網(wang)(wang)點(dian)的(de)(de)(de)區域(yu)為密(mi)(mi)度(du)計(ji)測量(liang)區域(yu)。）

    點擊菜單(dan)“Output”下(xia)的“Calibration Manager”菜單(dan)（位置見圖1）， 屏幕上會出現(xian)圖3所(suo)示的界面(mian)。

    第一次做(zuo)線(xian)性化時對話框1中沒有可用(yong)選項(xiang)，需要(yao)按“New”的按紐新建一個(ge)。在(zai)(zai)按之前先要(yao)檢查“Device”項(xiang)是否放在(zai)(zai)你所建的照排(pai)(pai)機上(shang)（如何新建“Device”將(jiang)在(zai)(zai)以后的文章中講(jiang)到），“Color Space”一項(xiang)的選擇根據(ju)發(fa)排(pai)(pai)時需要(yao)在(zai)(zai)RIP中分色還(huan)是在(zai)(zai)發(fa)排(pai)(pai)軟件(jian)中分色來確定(ding)（一般(ban)不(bu)需在(zai)(zai)RIP中分色，在(zai)(zai)發(fa)排(pai)(pai)軟件(jian)中分色即可，此(ci)一項(xiang)在(zai)(zai)頁面設定(ding)中也有選擇，參照其中的設定(ding)），兩者所用(yong)線(xian)性化數據(ju)不(bu)同。以在(zai)(zai)發(fa)排(pai)(pai)軟件(jian)中分色為例，“Color Space”一項(xiang)選擇“Monochrome”（單(dan)色），點擊(ji)“New”后出現以下界面：圖4。
