Calibrating scanner, looking for reference files for Monaco

I'm using an Espon 10000XL
Using LaserSoft Imaging - Silverfast Ai scanning software
Using a:
Monaco IT8 sheet
IT8.7/2-1993
MONR2005:06-03
Version 2

This is my first time calibrating anything so forgive me if i may be ignorant in some things.

I'm trying to find a reference file for my Monaco IT8 sheet. I've found some but they have a .mrf extension when my Silverfast Ai software uses .txt.
I found .txt reference files but they are the wrong ones. They are for the IT8.7/1 sheets.

Am I going about this all wrong or should I be able to get the right reference files?

Thanks for you help.

You on a Mac? You should have the correct .txt file here:System/Library/Application Support/Xrite/IT8 Targets. If you don't, send me a PM and I'll email it to you.

Well, I don't have the software loaded on a PC, so I dunno. I'd reccommend you download it from Xrite's website, but looks like they only give you the .mrf files in the download. Nevertheless...I got one for you if you need it.

I would greatly appreciate if you would send me that .txt file for the Monaco IT8 sheet.

I also checked Xrite's site for the Monaco reference files and like you said, all they have is .mrf files (which i'm assuming is solely for their MonacoEZcolor software)
