1 Introduction  
This chapter includes the following information about the KODAK  
PROFESSIONAL LED II Printer 20R:  
Product Description  
The KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II 20R printing system offers a combination of  
printing options that produces photographic quality output of digital images. The  
images are printed at a resolution of 250 dpi and at sizes varying from 8 x 10 in. to  
20 x 33 in.  
Images printed with this system are comparable to images produced on an optical  
printer. By using KODAK PROFESSIONAL Digital Paper with proper color  
management, the 20R printer provides the lookof VPS film on KODAK PORTRA  
or SUPRA Paper, or GOLD Film on KODAK EKTACOLOR Edge Paper.  
The system consists of a MACINTOSH or PC host computer to manage and  
manipulate the digital source image, a SCSI interface to transfer the digital image  
to the printing system, and the KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II Printer 20R to  
expose the digital image.  
You can use a variety of software applications (such as KODAK Image Print  
Server Software) to manage and manipulate the digital images.  
SCSI Interface  
A SCSI cable connects the host computer to the KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II  
Printer 20R. This interface transfers the digital image data from the host computer  
to the printer.  
KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II Printer 20R  
The KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II Printer 20R exposes digital images on  
photographic quality paper using a sophisticated technology involving Light  
Emitting Diodes (LEDs). The printer uses KODAK PROFESSIONAL Digital Paper,  
in 10, 11, 12, 20 inch and A4 widths to create prints of 6.5 x 10 in. to 20 x 33 in.  
The images are wound onto a takeup roll which is then taken to an RA-4  
processor for developing.  
Installation and Service  
The KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II Printer 20R printer must be installed and  
serviced by a qualified Kodak service representative.

Using the System  
Calibrating the Printer  
You need to calibrate the printer when you start the system up each day. You also  
need to calibrate the printer when:  
you change paper  
print quality is questionable  
the temperature at the site changes more than 5° F (2.8° C)  
if running more than one shift, at the beginning of each shift  
If you are calibrating at any time other than during the daily startup procedure:  
Before you begin, make sure the printer is not receiving printing commands from  
the host.  
NOTE: Most windows displayed in this section are from the Windows NT version  
of the software. The windows for the Macintosh version of the software are  
similar.  
For information about editing the calibration settings (for example, you may want  
to display a calibration graph only if calibration is out of tolerance), see Editing  
To calibrate the printer:

2. If necessary, cut a straight edge on the lead edge of the paper that is coming  
through the slotted opening in the supply cassette.  
3. Cut a piece of splice tape that is approximately 2 inches longer than the width  
of the supply cassette.  
4. Set the splice tape on the supply cassette with the adhesive side facing up.  
5. Place the lead edge of the paper onto the splice tape.  
6. Place the trail edge of the digital printer paper saver (the edge without the  
hole) on the splice tape.  
NOTE: If the digital printer paper saver is new, wipe it with a damp cloth to  
remove dust and static electricity.  
IMPORTANT:The digital printer paper saver must be the same width as the  
paper. Also, the curl of the digital printer paper saver and the curl  
of the paper must match.

2. Select Shutdown NOW?”  
This causes the printer to shut down operations and enter the standby mode.  
Restart  
1. Select Restartfrom the main menu on the OCP.  
2. Select Restart NOW?”  
This causes the printer to immediately shut down operations and reboot.  
NOTE: This shutdown is not a soft shutdown and does not save the parameter  
settings that have been made since the previous startup. Also, using  
this feature may cause a black line on the paper in the shoe.  
Selecting a Loading Option  
The optional paper loading feature, available on the OCPs main menu, allows  
you to choose a loading option depending on your needs. The option you choose  
determines how much paper is used during the load and whether or not the first  
images from the shoe have cut or order punches.  
NOTE: Do not use this feature if you are using a digital printer paper saver.  
The four load options are:  
1-Step Normal (factory default)The first image exposure will be made on  
the paper that was stored before the paper punch when the takeup cassette  
was loaded. All images have the appropriate cut and order punches.  
1-Step SaveSince the paper in the shoe is still unexposed, it is used for the  
first image exposure. However, since the paper is threaded through the printer  
during loading, the images on the first exposure are not individually punched.  
2-Step Darkthe room is completely dark while the paper is being cinched  
onto the takeup cassette. When loading, the paper is only partially advanced  
through the printer. You must then expose some images and when prompted,  
cinch the paper to the takeup cassette in the dark. The first exposure may or  
may not be punched, depending on whether you loaded a new roll of paper or  
are rethreading an existing roll. This option provides the least amount of  
waste.  
2-Step Lightthe room is light while the paper is being cinched onto the  
takeup cassette. When loading, the paper is only partially advanced through  
the printer. You must then expose some images and when prompted, cinch  
the paper to the takeup cassette in the light. The first exposure may or may  
not be punched, depending on whether you loaded a new roll of paper or are  
rethreading an existing roll.

2-Step Paper Loading  
The 2-step paper loading process is used when you choose the 2-Step Darkor  
2-Step Lightoption for paper loading. This process minimizes paper waste by  
printing on the paper before the paper is threaded to the takeup area and you  
cinch it onto the takeup cassette.  
The 2-step loading process is different than the 1-step loading process that is  
used for loading paper under 1-Step Normalor 1-Step Saveconditions. When  
you choose 1-Step Lightor 1-Step Save, the paper is threaded through the  
shoe and cinched onto the takeup cassette before images are printed.

Operating Procedures  
Changing the Paper Loading Option  
When using the Paper Loading Feature, you should select the paper load option  
before you load paper into the printer. However, you can change the paper load  
option at any time. If you change the loading option:  
before selecting Unload Takeup and Rethreadfrom the main menu on the  
OCP, the paper will follow the rethreading procedure for the loading option  
that you selected.  
after the paper is loaded but before the first exposure is made, the paper  
loading process will not be affected. If you are using the 2-Step Darkoption  
and the paper is not cinched, you will still be prompted to go darkwhen it is  
time to cinch the paper.  
When you change the paper loading option from 1-Step Normalor 1-Step Save”  
or 2-Step Darkor 2-Step Light, the printer will print the first exposure on the  
paper that is already positioned in the shoe. Similarly, when you change the paper  
loading option from 1-Step Subdued, 2-Step Darkor 2-Step Lightto 1-Step  
Light, the first exposure will not be made on the paper in the shoe and all images  
will be punched appropriately.  
Additional Paper Loss  
(For 1-Step Save and 2-Step Rethread Paper Loading Only)  
Only one exposure is made on the paper that is in the shoe after loading. Some  
paper may be wasted if the total size of the images on the first exposure does not  
fully use the paper in the shoe (33 inches). If Automatic Roll IDis enabled, the  
first image on the roll (for the Roll ID) is 6.5 inches long. This leaves 22.5 inches  
available for additional images.  
If the first image for the second exposure is less than 12.5 inches,12 inches of  
paper between the first and second exposure may be wasted.  
If the printer is reinitialized before the first exposure, additional paper is advanced  
and all images are individually punched.  
Changing the Length of Paper Remaining on the  
Supply Roll  
The value displayed is the length of paper that is left on the supply roll or in the  
takeup cassette. This number should be edited when a new or partially used  
paper roll is installed in the printer. You will normally receive a prompt to enter this

Operating Procedures  
Using the Automatic Roll ID  
The printer has the ability to automatically print a roll identification (roll ID) at the  
beginning of each roll.  
When this feature is enabled, the roll id will be printed every time paper is loaded  
into the printer and every time the paper is rethreaded (for example: when  
Unload Takeup and Rethreadis selected).  
The roll ID includes the date, time, and roll ID number. The date and time are the  
date and time that the roll of paper was loaded. The roll ID is a three digit number.  
This number will automatically increment each time a new roll is loaded. During  
loading, this number will be displayed on the OCP. The operator can change the  
number or accept the incremented number.  
If the printer runs out of paper while printing a job, an asterisk (*) will be printed  
after the roll ID on the following roll to indicate that the first print(s) on this roll of  
paper belong with the print(s) of the last job that was printed on the previous roll of  
paper.  
1. Select Setupfrom the main menu on the OCP.  
2. Select Printer.  
3. Select More.  
4. Select Roll ID.  
5. Select Printer ID. The printer ID will be printed with each roll ID and will not  
change.  
6. Select Roll ID Enabledand toggle to:  
Yesif you want a roll ID to be printed at the beginning of each roll  
or  
Noto not print a roll ID.  
Using Page Starts  
The value for Page Startsindicates the number of pixels between the back wall  
of the printer and the edge of the image. For example, when the printer begins to  
print, it moves the print head to the back wall of the printer and then advances it  
toward the front of the printer by the number of pixels specified in the page starts”  
parameter (value).  
The page startsvalue is set so that the edge of the image closest to the back of  
the printer will print off of the paper and will then be borderless on the back edge  
of the print.  
NOTE: If the image size is wider than the paper, the front edge of the image will  
also be borderless.

Operating Procedures  
Handling and Storing the Paper  
Follow the instructions included with the paper for storing and handling the paper  
properly.  
IMPORTANT: Avoid storing paper in low humidity conditions.  
Storing Paper by Using the Soft Shutdown Feature  
The Soft Shutdown feature (see Soft Shutdownon page 2-8) causes the rollers  
to automatically reverse to rewind the lead edge of the paper to the first metering  
roller during the soft shutdown process.  
About Printing  
A print job is not printed until it is completely downloaded to the printer.  
Print jobs are printed in the order they are received.  
If multiple copies of a print job are requested, they are positioned next to each  
other down the length of the roll, regardless of the width of the image.  
It takes the same amount of time to print (expose the paper) a length of 6.5  
inches as it does to print 33 inches.  
Image Size  
The minimum image length is 6.5 inches (1625 pixels). White space will  
automatically be added to images smaller than 6.5 inches to increase the image  
size to this minimum.  
The maximum image length is approximately 33 inches (8248 pixels).  
Buffered and Unbuffered Jobs (or Deferred and  
Immediate)  
Jobs can be stored in memory when downloaded from the host until enough jobs  
are downloaded to maximize the printing that occurs during the print cycle.  
Most host applications have an option to indicate whether to print the job as soon  
as it completes downloading to the printer or to wait until the printer has a full  
buffer to print.  
If the print job is sent down to the printer with the Unbuffered/Immediate option,  
the job will be printed as soon as it completes downloading to the printer.  
Regardless of the number of (or size of) the jobs in the printer waiting to print, jobs  
sent down with this option will be printed separately.

Operating Procedures  
In the printer, the paper is punched before the print job is printed. Since the punch  
is upstream of the printing, the first job of the next print cycle may be punched  
when positioning the paper for the current print cycle (to reduce waste). If the print  
job is sent down to the printer with the Buffered/Deferred option, this indicates to  
the printer to wait until it has a full buffer before printing. A full buffer is 26.5 to 33  
inches. A print job sent with this option will be printed when:  
the next print job received will not fit within the full buffer length  
the next print job received is requested to be printed unbuffered/immediate  
(the job received this way is printed by itself)  
the buffer is forced to be printed (see below)  
the buffer is full and the next print job has started to be downloaded to the  
printer  
NOTE: If your host application needs to wait until a print job has been completely  
downloaded to the printer before it can begin processing the next print job,  
this option should not be used with larger width paper. It will slow down the  
productivity of your system.  
To print deferred or buffered jobs:  
Pages Deferreddisplays on the OCP and a number other than zero displays in  
the Pages Waiting field when one or more jobs are waiting to be printed.  
1. Press On/Off Line to take the printer offline.  
2. Press Menu.  
3. Press Start to print the jobs.  
Host Software Functions Supported By the Printer  
The printer supports the following functions that may be available through your  
host software. Check the documentation for your host software to see if these  
functions are available and how to activate them.  
Bar Coding  
The bar coding function can be used for order tracking, package cutting (for  
example type 208), etc.  
Pixel Doubling  
The pixel doubling function can be used to double the size of an image.

Additional Troubleshooting Tips for the Printer  
Be careful to correctly load, seat, and thread the paper into the paper  
cassettes.  
Be careful to correctly close all doors prior to printing. Doors ajar or interlock  
switches that are not closed will prevent the printer from printing.  
Be sure to follow the proper instructions when installing the digital printer  
paper saver.  
Before connecting or disconnecting the SCSI cable or terminator, turn off the  
power for the printer and the host computer. Also, if you replace the SCSI  
cable, remove the Ferrite bead from the existing SCSI cable and install it on  
the new SCSI cable.

Consumption  
Nominal Voltage/Frequency  
Voltage Range  
200 - 240V, 15A, 50/60 Hz,

Sensing)**  
Less than  
* Phase selection must be completed at the factory or by a trained Kodak  
representative.  
* *Outside the U.S. and Canada, amperage for the printer is 16A.  
Consult with your electrical contractor or utility company to ensure that on-site  
wiring complies with the printer specifications and that wall outlets use isolated  
grounds and comply with codes. Further information is provided in the following  
sections.  
If the equipment is to be permanently connected, then the equipment must be  
provided with its own circuit breaker that is located near the equipment within  
easy reach of the operator and marked as the disconnecting device for the  
equipment.  
The unit is an Insulation Category Type II machine, and operates in a Pollution  
Degree 2 environment in accordance with IEC 664 (Normal Office Environment).  
For technical support, service, repair and fuse replacement information, contact  
Eastman Kodak Companys Technical Assistance Center at 1-800-822-1414.  
Power Cords  
A 2.4 m (8 ft.), grounded power cord with a special three prong plug is provided  
with your printer. The printer conforms to the NEMA N6/15 Printer Plug  
Specification.  
Special plugs and cords may be required outside of the United States and  
Canada. These plugs and cords will be provided by the Kodak distributor (the  
power cord provided for international locations must have at least 14 gauge wire).  
The power cord should be certified and approved by a national test house.  
CAUTION: Make certain nothing obstructs or is placed on power cords. Do  
not use extension cords; they can cause voltage loss which may  
result in unreliable equipment performance or equipment  
damage.

building is supplied with power by its own motor-generator, make certain that the  
governor that controls the frequency is capable of delivering power within the  
required operating frequency range.

Line Voltage  
The printer operates satisfactorily over a range of voltages around the nominal  
voltage.  
The local utility company is required to deliver power usually within ±10% of the  
rated value to the main distribution panel in the building. Voltage then drops from  
there to the outlets where the equipment is connected. The total voltage drop is a  
function of the following factors:  
The composition of the conductor material in the wire. Copper wire is a better  
conductor than copper-clad aluminum and aluminum wire, which results in  
less voltage loss over the same length of wire.  
The diameter or gauge of the conductor. Large diameter conductor exhibits  
less voltage loss than small diameter conductor.  
The length of the circuit. A long circuit layout may result in more voltage loss  
than a short, direct circuit layout.  
The load or current on the circuit (amperes). A large circuit load may result in  
voltage loss in a circuit.  
The types and number of connections. Several connections in a circuit  
increase the chance of improper wiring practices, which could result in voltage  
loss.  
You must allow for adequate wiring to keep the supplied voltage within the  
required range. Otherwise, intermittent data errors and system errors may occur.  
Low-voltage problems are more common than high-voltage problems and are  
generally caused by poor wiring practices.

Specifications  
Telephone line  
A telephone line (with a RJ11C modular phone jack) must be installed within  
3 m (10 ft.) of the printer to support the remote diagnostics. We recommend a  
high-grade analog service line.  
Densitometer  
An X-RITE DTP36 Densitometer is required to calibrate the printer and for  
process control. It is available through Kodak. See Accessorieson page A-1.  
SCSI Cable  
A single-ended or differential-ended SCSI cable is required to connect the host  
computer to the printer. Install a single-ended SCSI cable if the distance between  
the host computer and the printer is less than 6 meters. Use a differential-ended  
SCSI cable if the distance between the host computer and the printer is greater  
than 6 meters but less than 30 meters.  
IMPORTANT: The printer is configured in single-ended mode at the factory.  
Before installing a differential-ended SCSI cable, you must contact  
your Kodak service representative to have your printer  
reconfigured to the differential-ended mode.  
Operating Environment  
NOTE: The operating environment should be free of smoke and excessive dust.  
Air conditioning requirements:  
The Printer generates 7,509 BTU/hr.

Advanced Features of the LED II Calibration Software  
The Calibration Software for the KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II Printer  
20P/20R provides automated neutral density printer calibration and is designed to  
be used without assistance from technical experts. The advanced calibration  
features provided by this product enable you to customize the calibration of the  
printer. To use the advanced features, you should understand image science  
technology and the implications of manipulating neutral density calibrations.  
IMPORTANT: Printer calibration should not be mistaken for color management.  
Color management is provided by software applications that are  
independent of the printer and the calibration software.  
Viewing Graphs  
The View Graphs feature provides access to the available graphs from the most  
recently completed calibration.  
Examples of the Value, Difference, and History Graphs are shown below. The  
Value and Difference Graphs reflect the densitometer values that were last read.  
The History Graph displays the data from completed calibrations.

Additional Calibration Information  
Creating a Density File for Use with Calibration  
During calibration, you have the option of obtaining density data from a file or by  
scanning a processed test target through an X-RITE DTP 36 densitometer. The  
option is determined by the entry in the calibration configuration file. If the  
configuration file is set up to receive density data from a file and you are creating  
the file:  
1. Scan the print into your densitometer.  
2. Save the data to file using the density data file format specification (see File  
Formatsbelow). The Kodak Calibration Software does not perform this  
function.  
3. Move the density data file that you just saved to the folder or path selected on  
the Density Source tab of the Edit Configuration screen (see Editing  
File Formats  
NOTE: If a file contains data in a tabular format, each entry may be separated by  
multiple spaces and tabs;however, whenthe fileissaved bythe application,  
each group of multiple spaces and tabs is automatically converted to a  
single tab.

Server Software for WINDOWS NT Workstation 4.0 Systems with the KODAK  
PROFESSIONAL LED II Printer 20P (20P Printer) and the KODAK  
PROFESSIONAL LED II Printer 20R (20R Printer).  
The IPS Software enables printing of TIFF images and provides easy, intuitive  
methods for performing simple print management operations that include:  
stopping/suspending and resuming the processing  
deleting images from the queue  
inserting new images into the queue  
applying a tone scale correction to images  
In addition, IPS Software allows you to monitor a specified file system or folder  
while waiting for TIFF images.  
Communication Channels  
Your computer can print to the 20P or 20R Printer through a SCSI connection  
only.

application, the installation procedure also installs a tone scale correction LUT  
that may be used by the IPS application. The default installation location for this  
LUT is C:\Eastman Kodak\KPro Color Management\LUTS.”  
Using the Image Print Server  
This section summarizes the process of printing an image. See Dialog Boxes and  
Print Optionson page D-6 for detailed descriptions of the options.  
Inserting Images into the Print Queue  
The IPS application allows you to submit images by specifying a hot folder(for  
example: the Source Directory in the Source Directory Preferences dialog box)  
or inserting through the enqueue function from the application menu bar.  
Source Directory Insertion  
Images placed in the Source Directory are automatically placed into the print  
queue. The images are then sorted by the date and time that they were placed in  
the Source Directory. Images are printed in the order that they are placed into  
the directory. Once the image has been downloaded, the file is removed from the  
Source Directory.  
NOTE: The properties of the images that are placed in the Source Directory are  
taken from the Source Directory Preferences dialog box.  
Menu Bar Insertion  
To enqueue an image through the menu bar, select File->Enqueue or click the  
Enqueue button.  
Images placed in the queue through the menu bar are not removed from their  
original directory after they are downloaded.  
NOTE: The properties of images inserted in this manner are taken from the  
Enqueue dialog box.

Using the Image Print Server Software  
Suspending and Resuming  
When the IPS application begins execution, it searches the current directory for its  
preferences file, KIPSpref.dat. If this file is not found, the application begins  
execution in the suspendedstate as if the Suspend button was pressed. While  
suspended, the application does not communicate with the printer for any reason.  
As a result, the status bars on the application will not reflect the accurate state of  
the printer.  
If the application is suspended, pressing the Resume button will activate the  
application. If the preferences have not been initialized (for example: first time  
execution), you are prompted to initialize the IPS preferences. The application will  
remain suspended until the preferences have been properly initialized.  
If the preferences file is found when the application is launched, the application  
will begin execution in the runningstate as if the Resume button was pressed.  
Failed Jobs  
When an image fails to download for any reason, an appropriate error message is  
appended to the log. The log file is specified in the Source Directory Preferences  
dialog box.  
Images in the Source Directory are moved to the FailedJobs Directory. The  
FailedJobs Directory is created as a subdirectory within the Source Directory  
when the first failure occurs.  
Images that fail and were not inserted through the Source Directory are not  
moved to the FailedJobs Directory.  
Attended Operation  
The IPS application allows you to operate in the Attended or Unattended mode.  
The Server-> Attended menu item is used to enable and disable Attended mode  
operation.  
In Attended mode, all errors are displayed in dialog boxes. The IPS application is  
halted until you respond to the message.  
In Unattended mode, only errors that require user intervention are displayed in  
dialog boxes. Errors that do not require user intervention, such as an invalid file  
format, are logged in the log file.  
In both Attended and Unattended modes, all errors are written to the log file.  
NOTE: If a communication error occurs while the file is being downloaded to the  
printer, the image may not be printed. In addition, jobs that fail to print from  
the source directory are copied to the failed jobs directory.
