Solution

Changing Color Properties to Improve Coloration

The Photo Optimizer PRO function corrects colors of digital camera images or scanned images. It is specially designed to compensate for color shift, overexposure, and underexposure.

The procedure for performing Photo Optimizer PRO is as follows:

  1. Open the printer driver setup window.

  2. Set Photo Optimizer PRO.
    Check the Photo Optimizer PRO check box on the Effects tab.



    Normally there is no need to check the Apply Throughout Page check box.
    Images within each page are optimized on an image-by-image basis.

    Note: Check the Apply Throughout Page check box when printing image data that has been processed, such as being cropped or rotated. In this case the entire page will be treated as a single image to be optimized.

  3. Complete the setup
    Click OK.

    When you execute print, the images will be printed with color compensation.

    Important:
  • Photo Optimizer PRO does not function when:

    • Background is set in the Stamp/Background dialog box on the Page Setup tab.
    • Define Stamp is selected in the Stamp/Background dialog box on the Page Setup tab, and the bitmapped stamp is configured.

      Note: Depending on images, the Photo Optimizer PRO may have no discernible effect.
