This window of the X-Rite 4xx wizard begins the strip reading process. To begin reading a strip, click on the button associated with the color you wish to read. Then follow the instructions in the message box directly below the Read Black Strip button. This interface is "hard-wired" to except the 17 data points used in the 'dtp32.ps' file, which is located in your 'X:\PSFiles folder' (X: being the letter of the drive on which Wasatch SoftRIP was installed). This is the only test pattern that will give you a correct result.

After the densitometer has returned the strip values, you will see the 'Done' message appear next to the color that you selected. After each strip has been read, the Next button will change to Finish. You may select Finish after reading any number of the four strips to apply curves from only colors that you have measured. Colors you did not measure will not be overwritten should curves already exist.
