4: Printer Settings and Adjustments
Printing Preferences
Color (YMC) Optimization Tab
These color adjustments modify only how the pictures print. These adjustments have no effect
on the image files. (That type of adjustment would be made in an image processing application
program.) These adjustments are not available for Monochrome or KrO ribbons.
• Full color printing:
- Brightness and Contrast adjustments range from -25 to +25, default = 0. Changes
are reflected in the preview image.
- Sharpening filter options are None, Low, Normal (default), and High. Adjustments
are not reflected in the preview image.
By default, the image file is automatically sharpened; i.e., edges are enhanced within
the image. If sharpening has already been done, this function can be turned off
(None). The Low and High options are available if additional sharpening adjustment
is required.
- Preheat adjustment ranges from -50 to 50, default = 0. Increasing the preheat value
will darken up edges of fonts, fine lines, and color edges that are against a white or
very near white background.
In some cases, increasing the preheat value too much can cause the white or near
white images to print with a light color cast. Increasing the preheat might also
improve color-to-color mis-registration that may occur.
