Solution
Printing Photos in Grayscale
You can print color photos in grayscale photos.
-
Check that the photo you want to print is displayed in the bottom right area of the screen.
- Select the Grayscale Photo checkbox in the Printer Settings window.
Important
- When you select the Grayscale Photo checkbox, all the selected images will be printed in grayscale.
Note
- When Photo Paper Pro II or Fine Art "Photo Rag" is selected for Media Type, click Color Adjustment... to open the Color Adjustment dialog box in which you can adjust the black color tone. See Help for details.
- Click Print.
The Print dialog box appears.
-
Click OK.
Important
-
White streaks may appear at the top and bottom edges of grayscale photos printed in Letter, A4 or 8"x10" 20x25cm size. In that case, print with a 45 mm or more margin at the top and bottom edges.
If you select Bordered (Margin 45) for Layout, images will be reduced to allow a 45 mm margin at the top and bottom edges when printing.
-
If the print result after adjusting the color balance in the Color Adjustment dialog box is different from the preview image, print a color pattern and adjust the colors based on the pattern.
