Printing Photographs

Using Easy-PhotoPrint allows you to make borderless (full page) prints from images you took with a digital camera.

Easy-PhotoPrint supports Exif Print.
The image captured with an Exif Print-compliant digital camera can be optimized using data, such as camera settings (white balance, exposure time), etc. stored at the time of shooting, yielding extremely high-quality prints.

The photo applications are included in the Setup Software & User's Guide CD-ROM that comes with the printer. You can install the Easy-PhotoPrint program. Just go to your setup guide and follow the instructions.

This chapter describes the steps used to print borderless photos with Easy-PhotoPrint under Windows XP. The steps used under Macintosh are basically the same.
You can edit images taken with a digital camera by using the Red-Eye Correction and Digital Face Smoothing functions, and then print them with Easy-PhotoPrint.

Easy-PhotoPrint can handle only JPEG files (file name extension: .jpg and .jpeg).
