Convenient Printer Driver Features Other Methods of Printing: Printing from Print Plug-Ins Using print plug-ins, you can print directly from applications such as Adobe Photoshop and Digital Photo Professional. The main features of Print Plug-In are as follows. • You can automatically detect the color space of Adobe RGB or sRGB-use images, etc., and automatically set optimal profiles. Thus, you can print without the trouble of configuring settings. • You can directly process image data on Adobe Photoshop, and forward the image data to a printer.
