connected A connected MS01 system is a system that receives data from Fujifilm’s fulfillment
network, sends data to Fujifilm’s Fulfillment Network, and receives orders from
various sources (such as retailers and Fujifilm labs). This is accomplished via
Internet connectivity.
Crop modes MS01 offers different crop choices. For this example, assume that the original
product size and image dimensions are:
8x10 Image

4x6 Product
3.5x5 Image

Fill in Print area is filled with image and there may be image data lost if it does
crop not match the aspect ratio of the print size selected. Output will have no
mode white space.
8 x 10 Image 3.5 x 5 Image

Fit in Fits the image into the size selected leaving it at its current aspect ratio to
crop maintain all the image data. This will produce white space if the image is
mode not the same aspect ratio as the size selected.

This chapter contains frequently asked questions and answers specific to the MS01 software.
Refer to the table of contents for the frequently asked questions in this chapter.

Using the MS01 Software


How do I tell the difference between an MS01 Server and a Workstation?
An MS01 Server and a Workstation look very similar. You can determine the difference by looking at
the user interface of the View Orders screen.

In a Workstation’s View Orders screen, the column headings for the order table are italicized.

In an MS01 Server’s View Orders screen, the column headings for the order table are not italicized.

A print size or product will not print; how do I create new or load existing
products?
Adding products to the MS01 system falls into two categories: loading existing products1 and adding
new products.

Why am I receiving product validation errors?
In MS01 3.0, a new-and-improved product file methodology has been implemented. Therefore,
some challenges exist if sizes entered are out-of-bounds, invalid characters are used in file names,
etc.

When the MS01 software detects these issues, it will automatically fix them, as follows:

First… an Error dialog box opens stating the products


are not correctly configured and will be
automatically corrected.

Click OK.

Second… the Error dialog box


closes, and a Validation
Result dialog box opens
displaying the product
error that was corrected
by the product validation
process.

Click OK.

The Validation Result dialog box closes, and you can continue using the system.

Why won’t products print on my upgraded system?


Regarding upgraded systems, in some rare cases the products in 2.5.5 do not convert correctly to
3.0. This results in products that will not print.
Therefore, the following procedure must be performed as part of the upgrade process:

1 Before performing the upgrade, ensure that the lab’s product spreadsheet is up to date, or
document the system’s product list (if necessary).

2 Upgrade the system per instructions provided in the MS01 3.0 Installation Guide.

3 Compare the old product spreadsheet to the new products listed in the product setup user
interface, and reconcile any differences (such as paper size) using the product setup tools to
ensure that all products still exist and print to the correct-sized papers.

3 Click the Yes button.

The dialog box closes, and the product is removed from the list.

4 Continue removing products as directed above, and notice that they are removed from the list

Why do my 89C and 102C whole roll and quickprint products print on the
wrong size paper?
In MS01 version 2.5.5, 89C whole roll prints and quickprints were produced on 5-inch paper, and
102C prints were produced on 6-inch paper. These are now produced on 3.5-inch and 4-inch paper,
respectively.
With your system’s 3.0-upgrade, all product files were converted, and they no longer refer to “master”
product files. As a result, some of these older product files no longer work as they previously did.
Therefore, to produce prints on 5-inch and 6-inch paper, use either existing print products that are
installed on the system or create new product files for the preferred sizes.

What does the button do?


Clicking this button will power off the
MS01 system. For proper shut-down
procedures, see the MS01 Start-up and
Shut-down Guide.
On the FMPC, this is an emergency
shutdown for only the Panda
application. This will not power off the
FMPC/LPC box.
Note: This is not the proper shut-down
procedure for this device; only do this if
directed to do so by Technical Support.
Important: For systems that are not
connected to the Fujifilm fulfillment
network, this function can be used as a
proper method of shutting down the
system.
For systems that are connected to the
Fujifilm fulfillment network, this should
be treated as an emergency shut-down
command only. By clicking this button,
you are not performing a proper shut-
down procedure. Only use this button if
instructed to do so by Technical
Support.

But if this button is clicked on FMPC


screens, it terminates only the Panda
application.

What do I do if I’m having problems with 3.5 inch APS prints?
If a site will be scanning 3.5 APS to produce 89C, 89H and 89P prints, then they should make 3.5
inch paper available.

If they only have 5 inch paper, then 89H and 89P will NOT print correctly unless they change the
minimum width from 4.826 to 3.5 for 5 inch paper. If they do the later, then the prints will be made
at the correct size but with a 1.5 inch border on one side.

If 3.5 inch paper is available then the index print and promo print requested with a 3.5 APS scan
will still come out on 5 inch paper.

How do I make a Quick Print of a particular image?


1 In the View Orders screen, select an order.

Click the View Images button.

c. Click and drag the edge while holding down the mouse button, to make the box smaller
or larger, until it is the desired size. Release the mouse button. The crop is an aspect
ratio crop, which means the print is always the same as the previously selected print
size. The Adjust Print Crops screen displays what the photo will look like when it’s
printed. The crop marks display to show where the edge of the printed paper is.
d. If appropriate, right click the crop box to change orientation from portrait to landscape.
e. Click OK to accept the change, or click Cancel to decline the change, the Adjust Print
Crops screen closes.

10 Click the No Crop check box to print the full image within the print size selected, using white
space to fill in edges, where necessary, to retain the aspect ratio. (The white edges are not

Note: Quick Print items are sent directly to the Printer when you click OK. You do not click
Process Order for these items. The rest of the order remains ready to process (as soon as
you click Process Order). If more than one item has been processed in this order already, a
message will display.

11 Click OK to print the images.

When I try to simultaneously create a CD-R via an MS01 Server and a


Fujicolor CD via a Workstation, why is the Fujicolor CD not created on the
Workstation?
By design, the MS01 system uses a default digital writer device.
If this setting is configured in the MS01 Setup dialog box (Maintenance > 02 System Settings, >
0205 MS01 Setup > CD > Default digital writer device), the system will always process the disc
via the writer designated in this dialog box.
If you want to be able to process digital orders from other locations in the system, you need to clear
the entry in the Default digital writer device text field.

MS01 Frequently Asked Questions Guide

35
Why will the system continuously fail to connect to the Fujifilm network
when placing connection requests?
Your system will require connection requests to Fujifilm’s fulfillment network in order to upload
orders, download Web-generated orders, and to update your retail lab system.
First, check your connectivity to ensure that your system/lab/store network is working properly.
If the network is working properly, then the system may simply not be able to access a token from
Fujifilm at this time.
Because Fujifilm’s fulfillment network is connected to thousands of stores, Fujifilm’s token system is
designed to prevent our complex backend systems from being impeded by too many retail lab
systems at the same time. Therefore, if your system is having difficulty receiving a token, then the
Fujifilm network is simply receiving too many token requests simultaneously. The system will
automatically retry in a few minutes.

Why are date-prints on photos coming out with incorrect orientation and
truncated?
Non true-type fonts do not rotate properly with the date print feature.
The best types of fonts to use are true-type fonts, such as Times, Arial, and Helvetica.

Why don’t I see a difference in the image when I’m using the
Highlights/Shadows tools?
The new color tools for highlight and shadow color corrections
are very focused on the portion of the curve being corrected.
These corrections are also made to the portions of the curve
defined as highlight and shadow. If a highlight or shadow color
correction is made, and there is not a truly defined shadow or
highlight in the scene, little or no change will be made to the
image.
For best results, make a print and evaluate it. The monitor
sometimes does not pick up the subtle nature of the
correction.

How do I crop an image?
Crop is available only after you have selected
Compose and chosen a template for the custom print
images. MS01 uses an aspect ratio crop, which means
that the crop is always proportional to the selected print
size. Therefore, you need to provide MS01 with the print
size before Crop becomes available.

1 After you have selected a template for the custom print image, select the image and click
Crop.

2 Move the mouse to the edge of the image until the pointer changes to a double arrow.

3 The pointer will change to a double arrow when it is placed at the center of each crop edge.

4 Click and drag the edge to make the box smaller or larger while holding down the mouse
button, until it is the desired size. Release the mouse button.

5 If appropriate, click the left arrow to rotate left or right arrow to rotate right.

6 Place the pointer inside the crop box, and click and drag the box until it frames the part of the
image you want to keep.

Note: The mouse pointer changes to a four-point arrow when inside the crop box.

7 To move the crop lines so the image is centered and at the largest ratio for that print size, click
Maximize Crop.

8 To show how the cropped image will look, click Show Cropped.

9 Click Show Uncropped to return to the uncropped view. The image retains the selected crop
box. The image is printed with the crop applied, even if you selected Show Uncropped.

10 Click OK to crop the image or Cancel to undo the crop.

This chapter contains frequently asked questions and answers specific regarding the printers.
Refer to the table of contents for the frequently asked questions in this chapter.

ASK Printer Configurations


When my pictures are scanned upside down, rotated in MS01, then
exported, why is the exported picture cropped differently than the original
image?
If the images are rotated on the scanner before they are sent to the MS01 software, then exported,
the exported image will not be cropped.

Why is one job splitting to two six-inch printers?


The system splits orders when the quantity of prints in an order exceeds 120 (for the six-inch printers)
to allow faster order processing. At the end of each split, an order summary sheet prints out and a
Sort Tray Full message opens in the MS01 interface. Once the job completes, a Job Complete
message opens in the MS01 interface, in addition to the printing of the final Summary Sheet.

Why don’t I receive a Summary Sheet when printing eight-inch prints?


The Summary Sheet for eight-inch Frontier Lite prints occurs in the form of a DymoLabel; no print-
style Summary Sheet will be produced. This DymoLabel is also produced at the end of the printed
batch.

Why does anything other than a 4x6 print on six-inch paper come out
centered?
Because of bleeding of the thermal paper, there is no way to get the print perfect-to-the-edge.
Therefore, Fuji has left all non-4x6 prints centered on 6 inch paper.

What do I do when a job is stuck in “waiting” status in Panda?


Delete the job from the queue, log off, and remake the job.

Why don’t I receive an error when I unplug the printer’s USB cable from the
ICIII?
An error won’t open until you send a print job to the unconnected printer.

Why does a Found New Hardware wizard sometimes launch upon system
restart or when powering-on the dye sub printers?
Sometimes, when the system or a printer is restarted, a Windows-standard Found New Hardware
wizard opens. If this happens, simply run through the wizard as if you are installing a new USB-
connected hardware device.

1 After the Found New Hardware wizard opens, click Next.

A Found New Hardware Wizard / Install Hardware Device Drivers screen displays.

61
Why did I receive a Job Complete message but some of my prints are
missing?
When you have a order that contains more than 60, eight-inch prints, a Job Complete message will
open; however, the job may not be complete. Be sure to check the next prints that come out of the
printer to ensure a complete print job.

What do I do if any of the printer status icons are red?


Check to see if any of the printers are in an error state.
The orange light may be on the printer if this occurs.
When this happens, power the printer off and back on to see if the error light goes away.
If it doesn’t, call Fuji Service.
If it does, log off MS01.(From the View Orders screen, select Tools > Log off.)
In the resulting dialog box, type operator and click OK.
If there are no error lights on the printer, log MS01 off to Operator mode.
If this does not make the issue subside, call Fuji Service.

What is a Summary Sheet?


Because there is no backprint made on the prints that come from the Frontier Lite printers, Fuji
created the Summary Sheet to help photo lab operators understand which prints go with which
orders. The Summary Sheet prints out either at the end of a job or when a job is split because of the
established limit (which is 60). The top of the Summary Sheet contains the Order ID number and the
number of files in the order. It then lists the first name and last name of the customer and it displays
the first and last print in each batch.

DL 4x0 Printer Configurations
Why can’t I print 3 ½-inch width and 4-inch width prints on a DL 4x0
printer?
DL 400 printers cannot print 3 ½-inch wide and 4-inch wide prints. The DL 410 printer cannot print 3
½-inch wide prints.
To rectify this, review the following details. This example is for a print 3 ½-inch-sized product . . .

1 Navigate to Maintenance > 08 Products > 0802 Print Size Setup.

The Print Size Setup dialog box opens.

2 Select the 3 ½-inch-sized product from the products list.

3 Click the Edit button.

The bottom of the dialog box populates with information specific to the selected product.

4 Make the following changes:


If the system is set up for imperial measurements:
For a DL 400, change the Paper Width from 3.50 to 5.00.
For a DL 410, change the Paper Width from 3.50 to 4.00.
If the system is set up for metric measurements:
For a DL 400, change the Paper Width from 89 to 127.
For a DL 410, change the Paper Width from 89 to 101.6.

5 Click OK.

The Print Size Setup dialog box closes, and focus returns to the Maintenance application
window.

6 Click Close.

The Maintenance application closes.

7 Log off MS01.

63
prints, why did the system ask me to load roll paper into the printer with
8x10-inch sheet paper when I already have another printer with the correct
paper size loaded?
The system can determine different paper widths, but it cannot differentiate between paper lengths.
Therefore, it doesn’t know that the correct size is already loaded in the second printer, so it is
requesting that a roll be inserted for 8x12-inch sized prints.
To fulfill prints, follow on-screen instructions and load the roll into the first printer.

What do I do if the Surface drop-down menu does not appear in the


FrontMan screen?
The printer may be unrecognized by the system. If the ICIII has been restarted while the printer is
down, the printer may become unknown to the system.
Start up the printer so that it becomes known to the system.
Quit and restart FrontMan.

For scanned orders using manual mode, why did the index print come out a
different size than expected?
In manual mode, an index print is generated for the size selected in FrontMan at the beginning of the
ordering process.
Thereafter, further changes to the print sizes will not change the size of the index print ordered; a
new index print of the preferred size will have to be added to the order, and the unwanted index print
will need to be deleted.

Why doesn’t color information appear on the back of prints made from film
scanned on the SP 3000 scanner?
The back print feature is disabled.

To enable back printing, click the Backprint button in the scanner software.

When using Frontman, why can’t I order prints and a Standard CD when the
system is in manual mode?
Prints plus a Standard CD is not a product set supported by the system in manual mode.
In order to produce prints, the order must contain an Index Print. Likewise, if you order only a
Standard CD and an index print, a set of prints will be produced.

70
When in manual mode, why are 8x12 prints created when I ordered 4-inch
prints, a premium CD, and an index print?
In manual mode, prints are only created at the size scanned by the scanning software. Because a
Premium CD was ordered, the scanned size was 8x12.

Why is my scanned, 4x6”, bordered photo truncated?


When images are scanned, they are scanned at a selected size; any borders are placed directly on
top of the image. Therefore, the image looks truncated. The entire image will not display.

Scanner FAQs
SP 500

What do I do if the system significantly slows down while scanning film using an SP
500?
If the scanning system slows down, this may be a symptom of low disk space.
There are two options if you experience disk space issues when scanning using the SP 500 scanner:

a Break up your scans into smaller volume sets.


Fujifilm recommends scanning no more than three (3) rolls of film at a time.

b Wait until each scanned roll set reaches the Done, Ready, or Released state before scanning more
film.

c Only scan film. Do not try to go back to MS01 and perform digital input.

SP 1500/2000/2500 & SP 3000

What happened to my settings when the scanner was restarted?


Currently, front print settings are not saved on the SP 1500/2000/2500 & SP 3000 scanners and must be reset
after a scanner reboot. The default is to have the setting turned on, but you want it to be off to prevent double
back printing from the scanner software and the MS01 software.

This chapter contains frequently asked questions and answers specific to the tethered (printer +
scanner) systems.

Tethered System FAQs


Why is my MS01 Server not recognizing my tethered system?
If the hardware devices are not properly-named, the MS01 Server will not recognize the devices.
There is a two-step process for resolving this issue.

First, ensure that the devices in your system are named per the information listed below.

Note: Since the printers are connected to the scanner, the device name always refers to the scanner
name.

The Printer (sRGB) > Logical Device Name field The Printer (F-COLOR/PD) > Logical Device
must be: Name field must be:

SLP800sRGB SP-2000sRGB SLP800PD SP-2000PD

SLP1000sRGB SP-2500sRGB SLP1000PD SP-2500PD

SP-1500sRGB SP3000sRGB SP-1500PD SP3000PD

Next, additional configurations need to be set if the printer/scanner combination is a non-default


configuration.
For example, by default, an LP 1500 can be configured with an SP 1500, but an LP 1500 cannot be
configured with an SP 3000, etc.
