Systems and methods are disclosed for positioning or storing an electro-optical instrument (e.g., spectrophotometer) within a printing device to facilitate calibration or maintenance of the instrument. In various embodiments, the electro-optical instrument may be pivoted or moved to an inclined position to facilitate calibration of the instrument relative to one or more calibration references. The electro-optical instrument may also be moved or inclined along a travel path in the printing device to a position or positions adjacent to various calibration references.

Calibration of electro-optical instrumentation within printing devices

A termination is formed on an optical fiber by securing the fiber in a mold which defines a cavity for forming the termination. A liquid is injected into the cavity, which solidifies to form the termination. At least a portion of the mold is removed to expose the termination.
