6.Color Matching. Change your Color Matching setting to Graphics or Photos via the printer driver preferences. See Section 4F.

7.Cartridge Setting. Change the cartridge setting in the driv- er. Try Color + Black or Color only. To change the cartridge setting, right click on the printer in the Printers and Faxes area - choose preferences -click cartridge - set it to Color + Black or Color. Color only will still print black, but will use the color cartridge to print it. We recommend "Color" only for the best possible quality on photographic images with small amounts of black. If your image has large areas of black text, graphics or barcodes, we recommend Color + Black for the best quality.
