• Contrast adjusts the difference between the light and dark areas of
your image.
• Shadow Tonality and Highlight Tonality allow you to control
tonality only in the shadow or highlight areas of your image.
• Max Optical Density adjusts the overall density or focus of the
print. Create a soft focus print by setting the density lower.
• Highlight Point Shift helps to reduce gloss differential by adding
density to the highlights of your image.
•The tone color circle adjusts the hue of your black and white print.
Click on any portion of the color wheel or enter corresponding
values to customize the tone (hue) added to your print. The closer
you select to the edge of the wheel, the more color you add.
The preview image approximates the image tone based on your settings.
Note that this preview always shows the same image and is not color
managed. It provides a level of feedback as you make changes.
Creating a Custom Preset and Printing
Once you’ve made the correct settings for your print job, create a
custom preset. This will save you time when you use the same
profile/printer/ink/media combination for future print jobs.
1. After verifying that your settings are correct, select Save Current
Settings as Preset from the Presets drop-down menu.
2. Type a name for your custom preset and click OK.
3. When you’re ready to print, click the Print button.
Whenever you want to print with your custom preset, select it from the
Presets drop-down menu.
Note: If you check the
settings on each screen
in the drop-down menu,
go through them carefully
from top to bottom.
Avoid cycling through
them repeatedly, or you
may lose your settings.
Caution: Do not open
and close the Presets
menu without typing a
name, or you will lose
your settings.
