Printing photographs

The BJC-8200 is designed to reproduce the highest quality reproduction of color in photographic images, and in order to achieve this, some special settings are required in the printer driver. When the printer driver is opened, it is usually set for printing on plain paper documents created with a word processor or similar program. For special print jobs like printing a photograph on photo paper or some other special media, special printer driver settings are required.

Canon provides a variety of special media, Photo Paper Pro PR-101, Glossy Photo Paper GP-301, High Resolution Paper HR-101, and others, for special print jobs where superior reproduction of color is required.
