Full Color & Photo Realistic Finishing (Glossy Finish)
Use the steps outlined here for full color printing and photo realistic finishing (glossy
finish). Then the image will be finished with a Finish II cartridge, to create a glossy effect
similar to a Photograph. This method is particularly effective for printing photographic
images.
Requirements
For full color printing + photo realistic finishing, you need the following items.
•
Ink cartridge
Cyan ink cartridge (Part No. 106020-00)
Magenta ink cartridge (Part No.106015-00)
Yellow ink cartridge (Part No.106010-00)
Black ink cartridge (Part No. 106005-00)
Finish II ink cartridge (Part No. 105144-00)
•
Media
High Grade Paper (Letter)(Part No. 106085-00)
Greeting Card Set (Part No. 106090-00)
Note
When printing 600 x 600 dpi full color + photo realistic finishing,
we suggest using High Grade Paper or a Greeting Card Set to
obtain the best results.
Note
•
A good finish cannot be obtained if glossy finish is provided
to plain paper that lacks a smooth surface.
•
The Finish II ink cartridge is reversible up to five times. If
glossy finish is provided to plain paper of which surface is
not smooth, color ink might be attached to the finish II ink
cartridge. If the finish II ink cartridge is reversed and used in
this situation, the paper surface to which glossy finish is pro-
vided could be ink stained. When using the Finish II ink car-
tridge after reversing it, the following conditions should be
met:
1. Provide glossy finish to either VPhoto Print Film (8.5" x
11") or VPhoto Paper (4x 6" Plus).
2. Provide glossy finish to ALPS High Grade Paper.
