Printing with EPSON Drivers for Windows 4-3

•Click Custom and then choose one of the print job types from the custom settings list, as described below:

Setting	Usage
Advanced	Prevents the misprinting of ink dots that may occur
Photo	because of the movement of the print head and
	paper. Available only with certain media types.
Text/Graph	Intensifies colors and lightens the midtones and
	highlights. Best for print jobs with non-
	photographic images.
ICM	Adjusts colors based on your printer’s ICC profile,
	using the Image Color Matching system (effective
	in Windows 98/Me/2000 only). If you’re using an
	ICM-compatible monitor, adjusts printed colors to
	closely match screen colors.
sRGB	Adjusts colors using the small-gamut sRGB
	(standard red green blue) color space. Best for
	color matching with other sRGB devices, or for
	images designed for the Web.
