Black Finish

 

Use this option to control the way black is printed in colour documents. Select Composite Black (CMYK) to uses all 4 toner colours to represent black. This option is recommended for color photos. Select True Black (K) to uses 100% black toner to represent black. This option is recommended for text and business graphics.

Brightness / Saturation

This option allows you to increase brightness for a lighter print. Modify saturation to change the strength (or purity) of a colour.

If the printed colours are too strong, reduce saturation and increase brightness. As a general rule, reduce saturation by the same amount as you increase brightness. For example, if you reduce saturation by 10, increase brightness by 10 to compensate.
