Enhancing Photos The printer software includes PhotoEnhance™ options that adjust image brightness and contrast to improve the appearance of low-resolution and improperly exposed photos. You can also use PhotoEnhance to add special effects. If you're printing high-resolution images, you may want to use the Automatic setting instead, as described on page 7 (Windows) or page 11 (Macintosh). PhotoEnhance does not affect your original image; it only affects your printout. Printing with PhotoEnhance may take longer on some systems. To use PhotoEnhance, you must select Color ink; you cannot turn on PhotoEnhance with Black ink selected. To use PhotoEnhance, set the Mode option to PhotoEnhance in your printer settings dialog box. If your photograph was taken with a digital camera, you can select Digital Camera Correction to give your printed images the appearance of photographs taken with a film camera. For more fine-tuning, you can select from a list of specialized settings for photographs, such as People or Nature, or select special filters, such as Soft Focus or a Sepia tint. 13
