Special Effects (Print Dialog Box)

If you select Special Effects from the pop-up menu in the Print dialog box, you can edit or optimize photos and other graphics data.

 

(1) Simulate Illustration

This function manipulates color images with certain effects. Adjust the brightness of the image with the Contrast slide bar.

(2) Monochrome Effects

Prints a color image in a single color. Choose a color or use a custom color using Select Color.

(3) Vivid Photo

By using this function, you can reproduce breathtaking sceneries, where colors, especially blues and greens, appear even more vibrant. A major feature of this function is its ability to create vivid backgrounds of fields, trees, oceans and skies, while maintaining the natural skin tones of people that appear in the images.

(4) Photo Noise Reduction

When printing images recorded with your digital cameras, blue skies may be dappled or dark appearing rough. You can reduce this effect with the Photo Noise Reduction function. Using this function with photographs other than those taken with a digital camera may cause the images to be disturbed.
