Getting Better Results from Your Printer

Because monitors and printers use different color systems, colors on your
computer screen may not always match those in your documents or prints. To
achieve more predictable results in your printed documents:
! Improve the quality of your paper. Copier paper may not offer the same
results as coated paper or paper made especially for inkjet printers.
! Adjust your printer software settings.
! Use fresh ink cartridges. Do not use ink cartridges beyond their life
expectancy.
Remember the following tips for printing your pictures:
! For best results, print your pictures no larger than 3 x 5 inches (7.6 x
12.7 cm).
! Color printing takes more time than black and white. More complex
pictures increase the printing and drying time.
! Color printing is more memory intensive than black and white. If your
computer gives you an insufficient memory message, you may need to
close some applications, change some settings, or add additional
memory.
! Color prints may not photocopy as clearly as black and white. If you plan
to photocopy your pictures, consider printing the document in grayscale.
This setting is usually changed from the Print dialog box.
! Resizing the picture to a smaller size or printing the picture on glossy
paper may increase the quality of the print.
! To improve the quality of your prints, you may want to print your pictures
on KODAK Inkjet Snapshot Paper (Snapshot Paper). Snapshot Paper is
made to work with most inkjet printers to give you clearer, crisper, and
more detailed images on your prints.
