Enhance your photos

Your HP Photosmart A520 series includes two on-board features for enhancing your images: red-eye reduction and Photo Fix.

The red-eye reduction feature is on by default when you turn on the printer. It reduces the red-eye effect that sometimes occurs in flash photos. If you want to print a photo without using this feature, you can turn it off by pressing the Red Eye button on the control panel. Pressing the button again will turn the red-eye feature back on.

Photo Fix automatically enhances your photos using HP Real Life Technologies that:

•Sharpen blurred photos.

•Improve the dark areas of a photo without affecting the light areas of a photo.

•Improve the overall brightness, color, and contrast of photos.

Photo Fix is on by default when you turn on the printer for the first time. If you want to print a photo without using the Photo Fix improvements, turn off Photo Fix from the printer menu. See “Printer menus” on page 10 for more information.
