If you are printing on photo paper

If you are printing on photo paper, you have the option of using the gloss enhancer, which improves
overall gloss quality and eliminates bronzing. There are three settings:

Off: the gloss enhancer is not used.

Economode: the gloss enhancer is used in inked areas of the image, but not in ink-free (white)
areas.

Whole page: the gloss enhancer is used over the whole area of the defined page, including ink-
free areas.

If the print quality slider is set to Quality, the Gloss enhancer option is automatically set to Whole
page
. To change this setting:

In the driver dialog (Mac OS Print dialog): select custom instead of standard print-quality
options, then the Gloss enhancer option.

On the Embedded Web Server's Submit Job page: select Basic settings > Print
quality
> Custom > Gloss enhancer.

Using the front panel: select the Setup menu icon

, then Printing preferences > Print

quality > Gloss enhancer.
