Notice: Output Viewing Conditions

Due to the nature of all pigment inks, lighting conditions can affect the appearance of printer output. For example, a print viewed under daylight may appear to have a slightly different color balance when viewed under tungsten lighting. Care should be taken that the prints are produced for the lighting conditions in which they will be displayed.

The EPSON printer driver was designed to represent color accurately when prints are illuminated with a D50 (daylight) light source. For optimum results, understand your output display conditions

before printing.

Color Management Settings

The following tables list the color management settings available when you choose either Color Controls or PhotoEnhance4.

PhotoEnhance4 is designed to enhance images captured using video cameras, digital cameras, or scanners. Depending on your system and the size of the image, printing with PhotoEnhance4 may take longer.
