Using Custom Project Types
Your printer software includes custom project types with preset printing options. This
lets you quickly select the best settings for your particular type of document, or select
a color-matching method for your project. To access the project types, click
Custom
,
and click the
Custom Settings
list to open it. Then select from these project types:
■
Text/Graph
: For printing graphics-intensive documents like presentations with
charts and graphs.
■
Economy
: For printing rough drafts of text on plain paper. Saves ink.
■
ICM
(Image Color Matching): For printing documents created in an ICM
compatible application.
■
sRGB
(standard Red Green Blue; Windows only): For printing documents
created in an sRGB compatible application using sRGB colors, such as those
designed for the World Wide Web. See your Windows online help for details.
■
ColorSync
(Macintosh only): For printing documents in conjunction with
ColorSync
®
compatible devices and applications.
Using Advanced Settings
For maximum control over your project, you can customize your print settings—such
as
Print Quality
,
Halftoning
, and
Gamma
—and use special effects.
To access these settings in your printer software, click
Custom
and then click the
Advanced
button.
After you customize your print settings, you can save them as a group so you can reuse
them whenever you print a similar project.
The default Gamma setting of 1.8 provides the optimum contrast
quality for your photos. However, you can change it to either 1.5 (for
decreased contrast) or 2.2 (for increased contrast; recommended for
matching colors with sRGB devices).
