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.
