The Input ICC Profile is necessary for the program to generate
a new ICC profile after calibration for the printer to produce
accurate and consistent CMYK colors. |

The RAM is insufficient. Some of the files
required for the calibration process could not be opened. |
Increase the RAM to 256MB for Windows or 350MB

For Mac OS 9, the minimum required memory allocation is 150000kb. |
| Center point not found. |
The program was unable to detect the center
points of the top left and right reference points of the Focoltone
Calibration Chart during scanning. This could be because: |
Always make sure the two sheets are properly
aligned. |
| |
a) The scanned image was not properly oriented. |
a) Check that the orientation rotation angle
is correct. Your scanned image should be rotated to become landscape
oriented. You can change the orientation under ICCS Options.
Show

b) The scanned image was incomplete. The four
corner reference points were not scanned or detected. |
b) Ensure that the scan area covers the four
corner reference points on the Calibration Chart. |
| |
c) The scan was not properly performed. |
c) Make sure you positioned the composite
precisely. The composite should be aligned with the scanning
surface size guides.
There should not be excess white space at any of the edges of
the scanned image.Make sure the corner reference points are
within the scanned image. |
| |
d) The scanned colors were inaccurate due
to the scanning tool's exposure or brightness levels. |
d) Adjust the exposure or brightness of your
scanning tool to capture colors accurately. |

e) The Test Sheet was scanned without the
Calibration Chart. |
e) Scan the Test Sheet with the Calibration
Chart. |

Please refer to Troubleshooting. |
Focoltone was unable to locate the scanned
image file in the DATA directory of the ICCS program files. |

is saved in the DATA directory of the ICCS program files. If
it was saved elsewhere, please move it to the DATA directory.

| Unable to detect any color. Please scan again. |
The program detected white space where a color
should be. Possible reasons for this: |
|
| |
a) The Test Sheet was not properly printed. |
a) Make sure your Test Sheet has been properly
printed, with all the color boxes filled. |
| |
b) The scan was not done properly. |
b) Re-scan the composite. |
| |
c) Your composite is not aligned. |
c) Realign your Test Sheet with the Calibration
Chart. Make sure this is properly done. |
| |
d) The Calibration Chart was scanned without
the Test Sheet. |
d) Scan the Test Sheet with theCalibration
Chart. |
| Unable to detect most of the colors. Please
readjust and scan again. |
The spaces below the colors on the Calibration
Chart were a mix of white and color. Thus, the program could
not get enough color data from the scan. Possible reasons for
this: |
|
| |
a) Your composite is not aligned. |
a) Realign your Test Sheet with the Calibration
Chart. Make sure this is properly done. |
| |
b) Scanned image is over or under exposed.
|
b) Adjust the exposure level in the scanner's
setting. |
| |
c) The Test Sheet was not properly printed. |
c) Make sure your Test Sheet has been properly
printed, with all the color boxes filled. |
| |
d) The Calibration Chart was scanned without
the Test Sheet. |
d) Scan the Test Sheet with the Calibration
Chart. |
| |
a) Printed colors on Test Sheet do not correspond
to the same color patches on the Calibration Chart. |
a) Realign your Test Sheet and Calibration
Chart, making sure the colors correspond. |
| |
b) Portions of the Test Sheet may be missing
due to poor printing. |
b) Make sure the Test Sheet has been printed
properly. |
| The Test Sheet has been moved up too much.
Please realign and scan again. |
The Test Sheet was not properly aligned with
the Calibration Chart. It was placed too far up. |

Part of the composite sheet was not scanned.
This type of error only occurs in Manual Mode when you scan
the composite sheet manually. |
Adjust the scan area from scanner and the
scanner's application to make sure the whole composite sheet
is properly scanned.
In the scan preview, adjust your scan area such that the whole
composite sheet is scanned, without excess white spaces at the
edges.
