Selecting the Photograph Check Box
Select the Photograph check box if the image you
are printing is a photograph. Selecting the
Photograph check box allows for a smooth and
more pleasing color rendering for photographs.
Note: Clear the Photographic check box if you are printing business graphics or
line art. Colors are more saturated and have a greater contrast if
Photograph is not selected.
Adjusting How Your Image Appears
Move the Blur/Sharpen, Contrast, and Darker/Lighter sliders to change
the appearance of your image.
Move the slider of the Blur/Sharpen slider to soften or highlight the edges
in your image or hide (blur) small defects in the image.
Move the Contrast slider to change the contrast in your image.
Move the Darker/Lighter slider to brighten or darken an image.
Creating a Print Ready File (PRF)
When you create a PRF file, no data is sent to the printer. You can process
a file and print it at a later time, for example:
•
if your printer is down for maintenance
•
if you want to print all the files with one media type before changing
to different media
•
if your host computer is not connected to the printer
1.
Click the Open File or Hot Folder icon, and load the file you wish to
process to PRF format.
2.
Select the Print to File check box.
3.
Set print options as previously indicated.
4.
If Print to File is selected, the copies field is shaded and set to 1.
5.
Click the Print button.
Easy Print prompts for a PRF file name and then prints to a PRF file.
