Fixing Photos
PictureMate lets you correct the color and improve the image
quality of your photos without using a computer. Two types
of adjustments are available:
❏ Automatic adjustments
If your camera supports PRINT Image Matching (P.I.M.)
or Exif Print, the printer’s
P.I.M.
setting automatically
adjusts your photos for the best results.
The
PhotoEnhance
setting improves your photos’ colors
and increases contrast and sharpness. It may correct images
that are too dark, too light, or backlit.
❏ Manual adjustments
If your photos are too light or too dark, you can manually
adjust their brightness or control the saturation and
sharpness.
If you want, you can make manual adjustments while
PhotoEnhance is turned on in order to fine-tune your
automatic settings.
Note: These settings affect only your printed pictures. They do
not change your original image files.
Automatically Fixing Your Photos
PictureMate’s automatic image adjustments are applied to all
your photos.
Note: The type of automatic adjustment you choose is kept until you
remove the memory card or cancel all settings. To use the same
setting whenever you print, see the Basics book.
