Re: IJC/OPM spectro's and densitometers?

Derek,

IJC/OPM is able to use a scanner for linearization, but it won't be 
as accurate as a densitometer or spectrophotometer.  All you do is 
scan the printed test target, save it, open it into IJC, and drag 
your mouse pointer across the target.  L* values are read directly 
into the program for linearization.
