All the x rays from 14 keV to 40 keV to reach the sample thus
efficiently exciting the elements Hg, Pb, Br, As.
There is little or no sensitivity to elements below Ca with these
settings reducing unneeded detector activity
Eliminates any background x rays under the peaks of interest

5 to 10 min in
White area where there in no toner
Areas tone varies grey to black
The difference will give you a very good clean spectrum of the toning
agent. And the grey to black variation will give you an estimate of the
amount of agent. The reason this works so well are
The toning materials are very thin and have very little effect on the
spectrum from the paper
