Introduction Introduction Introducing the Kodak DryView 8700 and 8500 Laser Imagers The Kodak DryView 8700 Laser Imager (8700 Laser Imager) and the Kodak DryView 8500 Laser Imager (8500 Laser Imager) are continuous–tone laser imagers with an integrated photothermographic film developer. The two imagers are nearly identical except for film size. The 8700 Laser Imager uses only 14” x 17” (35 x 43 cm) Kodak DryView Laser Imaging Film (DryView film).
User Guide System Configurations The 8700/8500 Laser Imagers are both available in three different configurations. Key features of each configuration are: 8700/8500 Laser Imager Standard System Supports up to two inputs (can be upgraded to support multiple inputs). Provides up to 64 megabytes of image memory, in 16 megabyte increments. Uses copper cable for external connections. Image acquisition and printing are accomplished via host control, Kodak DryView 8700/8500 Keypad, or Kodak Keypad.
Introduction Keypad Feature Comparison This table compares the features provided by the DryView 8700/8500 Keypad and the Kodak Keypad. Note that the Kodak Keypad is available with all DryView 8700/8500 Laser Imager systems, but the DryView 8700/8500 Keypad is available only with the DryView 8700/8500 Laser Imager Standard system.
User Guide How the 8700/8500 Laser Imager Works The following sequence occurs each time the 8700/8500 Laser Imager receives a print command. The circled numbers in Figure 1-2 correspond to the numbered steps below. Dashed lines indicate the film path. 1. Suction cups in the pickup area lift a single sheet of film out of the supply cartridge and feed it into the film transport rollers. 2. The film transport drives the film down into the exposure module. 3.

Operation and Maintenance Replacing the Developer Filter Kodak DryView Laser Imaging Film emits a slight odor when it is developed. The developer filter absorbs and neutralizes this odor. As the filter ages, it becomes slightly less effective. If odor becomes noticeable, replace the filter as follows: 1. Unlatch and open the filter housing. 2. Remove the old filter. 3. Install the new filter. See the instructions on the filter package. 4. Close and latch the filter housing. Filter Figure 3-4.

Troubleshooting Manually Closing the Film Cartridge The imager automatically closes the film cartridge when Supply is pressed, when the cartridge is empty, and when film jams occur in the expose or transport areas. If the imager cannot close the cartridge, a P177 error message is displayed. Note If doors are opened when the film cartridge is open, the top sheets of film will be exposed. To minimize the number of exposed sheets, darken the room before opening the doors.
User Guide Unlocking the Left Door and Supply Door Via Mechanical Releases Note When the left door is unlocked via its mechanical release, the film cartridge stays open, and the top sheets of film in the cartridge are exposed. To minimize the number of exposed sheets, darken the room before opening the left door. Left Door The imager automatically unlocks the left door if a film jam occurs in the expose or transport areas. If the imager cannot unlock the door, the local panel displays a P208 error message.

Technical Information Technical Information Description Kodak DryView Laser Imaging (DryView Laser Imaging) film is a high-resolution, infrared-sensitive, photothermographic film designed specifically for the family of DryView Laser Imaging systems. DryView Laser Imaging film delivers the same diagnostic image quality you get with your current silver halide laser films – but it requires no “wet” chemistry, no “wet” film processors, and no darkroom procedures.
User Guide Image Quality DryView Laser Imaging film delivers diagnostic-quality, continuous-tone images along with sharp alphanumerics and optimum contrast. This high-quality silver-based film provides radiologists with the same diagnostic information they are accustomed to viewing – including the spatial resolution, contrast, and gray levels. Plus, because it is a totally dry imaging process, there is no image quality variability due to “wet” chemistry.
Technical Information Less Impact on the Environment Disposal regulations and procedures for “wet” processing chemistry are time-consuming and expensive. And even with the most exacting procedures, the potential to discharge hazardous materials into the environment exists. Tests show that DryView Laser Imaging film is not considered hazardous to the environment.
User Guide Storage and Handling of Undeveloped Film As with other laser imaging films, to achieve consistent results up to the expiration date indicated on the film package, DryView Laser Imaging film must be stored in a cool, dry place (41°F/5°C to 77°F/25°C) and protected from radiation and chemistry fumes. 77°F 41°F 25°C 5°C TEMP The film can also withstand short-term temperature spikes (up to 95°F/35°C for several hours) during transit without any significant effect on film quality or performance.
Technical Information Archivability of Developed Film DryView Laser Imaging film has been tested and can be archived for more than 100 years when stored at American National standards Institute (ANSI) recommended storage conditions (77°F/25°C). Developed films may be stored at higher temperatures, however, that may reduce the number of years the film can be stored. For example, storing films at a constant elevated temperature of 90°F/32.2°C may reduce archive capability to 30 years.
User Guide Film Recycling According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards, DryView Laser Imaging film is not considered hazardous – so unlike typical “wet” films, it requires no special disposal procedures. DryView Laser Imaging film does contain silver and polyester that may be recovered by using one of several recycling processes. If you are interested in recycling and silver recovery, Kodak can provide your local recyclers with the information they need to get started.
