As we have properly understood that:

      If (Ink) is on the Touchscreen, you can press it, and then go to Step g.
       
   2. Press the Up or Down arrow to display General Setup.
       
   3. Press General Setup.
       
   4. Press the Up or Down arrow to display Ink.
       
   5. Press Ink.

   (C) Normal
   
   
3. If Check Sheet is normal, go to STEP B. If your Check Sheet is mixing colors or missing colors, you need to clean print head. Click here to see how to improve poor print quality.
   
   If mixing colors or missing colors are improved in head cleaning, print once and check printing quality.
   
   If there is still a printing quality, go to STEP B.

STEP B: Color Enhancement

Depending on the current settings in the printer driver, you can make changes to the settings to improve print quality:

(Windows®)

1. Open Printing Preference. (Click here to see how to open Printing Preferences.)
    
2. Open Basic tab, you may adjust the following settings:
   
   
   • Media Type: To achieve the best print results, the media being printed on should be selected in the driver. The machine changes the way it prints depending on the selected media type.
      
   • Print Quality: The quality selection lets you choose the print resolution. As print quality and speed are related, the higher the quality, the longer it will take to print the document. The quality selections that are available will vary depending on the media type you choose.
      
   • Color Mode: Color is adjusted to get the closest color match with the PC monitor.
     • Natural: Use for photographic images. The color is adjusted to print more natural colors.
     • Vivid: Use for business graphics such as charts, graphics and text. The color is adjusted to print more vivid colors.
        
3. Click Apply.
    
4. Click Advanced tab.
    
5. Click Color Settings.
   
   
6. Check Color Enhancement (True2Life®) and then adjust color.
   This feature analyzes your image to improve its sharpness, white balance and color density. This process may take several minutes depending on the size of the image and the specifications of your PC. With this option you may manually adjust the following settings:
   
   
   • Color Density: Adjusts the total amount of color in the image. You can increase or decrease the amount of color in an image to improve a washed out or weak looking picture.
      
   • White Balance: Adjusts the hue of the white areas of an image. Lighting, camera settings and other influences will affect the appearance of white. The white areas of a picture may be slightly pink, yellow or some other color. By adjusting the white balance you can adjust those white areas.
      
   • Brightness: Adjusts the brightness of the whole image. To lighten or darken the image, move the scroll bar to the right or left.
      
   • Contrast: Adjusts the contrast of an image. This will make darker areas darker and lighter areas lighter. Increase the contrast when you want an image to be clearer. Decrease the contrast when you want an image to be more subdued.
      
   • Red: Increases the intensity of Red in the image to make the image redder.
      
   • Green: Increases the intensity of Green in the image to make the image greener.
      
   • Blue: Increases the intensity of Blue in the image to make the image bluer.
      
7. Click OK to close the windows.
