Getting Better Results from Your Printer
You may notice that the colors on your computer screen do not always match
those in your documents or prints. This is because monitors and printers use
different color systems.
You may be able to achieve more predictable results in your printed
documents by:
m
Improving the quality of your paper. Copier paper may not offer the
same results as coated paper or paper made especially for inkjet
printers.
m
Adjusting your printer software settings.
m
Using fresh ink cartridges. Do not use ink cartridges beyond their life
expectancy.
Remember these few tips for printing your pictures:
m
Color printing takes more time than black and white. More complex
pictures increase the printing and drying time.
m
Color printing is more memory intensive than black and white. If your
computer gives you an insufficient memory message, you may need to
close some applications, change some settings, or add additional
memory.
m
Color prints may not photocopy as clearly as black and white. If you
plan to photocopy documents, you should consider printing the
document in grayscale. This setting is usually changed from the Print
dialog box.
m
Resizing the picture to a smaller size or printing the picture on glossy
paper may increase the quality of the print.
m
To improve the quality of your prints, you may want to print your
pictures on KODAK Inkjet Snapshot Paper (Snapshot Paper). Snapshot
Paper is made to work with most inkjet printers to give you clearer,
crisper, and more detailed images on your prints.
