For additional information on these settings, see the electronic Reference Guide, as described on page 3.

Using PhotoEnhance

The printer software includes PhotoEnhanceoptions that increase image brightness and contrast to improve the appearance of low-resolution photos. You can also add special effects, such as Soft Focus.

If you’re printing high-resolution images, you may want to use the Automatic setting instead; see page 7 (Windows) or page 12 (Macintosh).

PhotoEnhance does not affect your original image; it only affects your printout. Printing with PhotoEnhance may take longer on some systems and images.

To use PhotoEnhance, you must select Color ink; you cannot turn on PhotoEnhance with Black ink selected.

If your photograph was taken with a digital camera, you can select Digital Camera Correction to give your printed images the appearance of photographs taken with a film camera.

For more fine-tuning, click Standard. You see a list of specialized settings for photographs. Select the setting that most closely matches your photograph (People or Nature) or select one of the special filters (Soft Focus or Sepia). You may need to experiment with these settings to get the exact look you want, especially if you have multiple images on a page.

For more details on the printer settings, see your electronic Reference Guide, as described on page 3, or online help.
