[Athen] Canon 9080c calibration

[Brian Richwine]

Hello,

We've been using a Canon DR-4010C for sometime now. Except for the rare
over-sized book, it has been serving us well and works with CapturePerfect,
ABBY Finereader Pro, and Kurzweil 3000 just fine.

Sincerely,
  Brian Richwine

>> Anyone have any ideas? Of happen to have the calibration utility??
