•Super MicroWeave or MicroWeave

Eliminate unwanted banding effects. These settings are automatically selected for most media types. If you notice banding with the standard MicroWeave setting, select Super MicroWeave.

•High Speed

For fast, bidirectional printing at lower quality. If vertical lines in your printout are misaligned when you use the High Speed setting, you may need to turn it off or align the print head.

•Flip Horizontal

For printing a mirror image of your file. Use with backlight film.

6.Choose one of the following Color Management settings:

•Color Controls

Lets you specify individual values for adjusting brightness, contrast, saturation, and CMY inks, or choose from the two Color Control modes, described in the table on page 4-9.You can also choose from three Gamma settings, which control image contrast by modifying the midtones and midlevel grays.

•PhotoEnhance4

Allows you to correct noise and other problems common to digital camera images. Also lets you see a sample image that reflects the photographic tone and special effect settings you choose. See page 4-10for a description of the available settings.

•No Color Adjustment

Disables color management in the printer driver. Choose this mode if you want to use a standalone color management module.

•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.

•ICM

Adjusts colors based on the printer’s ICC profile, using the Image Color Matching system (Windows 98/Me/2000/XP only). If you have an ICM-compatible monitor, adjusts printed colors to closely match screen colors.
