This feature enables the image to be rotated 180 
degrees so that it can be printed correctly on paper that 
can only be loaded in one orientation (such as 
envelopes or paper with punch holes).

This function is used to enlarge or reduce the image to a 
selected percentage. This allows you to add margins to 
the paper by slightly reducing the image, or to enlarge a 
small image.
When using the PS printer driver, you can set the width 
and length percentages separately to change the 
proportions of the image. (XY-Zoom)

Select [Zoom] and click the 
[Settings] button.
The actual paper size to be used for 
printing can be selected from the 
pull-down menu.

Select the zoom ratio.
Directly enter a number (%) or click 
the 

 button to change the ratio 

in increments of 1%.

The image can be reversed to create a mirror image. 
This function can be used to conveniently print a design 
for a woodblock print or other printing medium.

(This function can be used when the PS printer driver is used.)

Select the Mirror Image settings.
If you wish to reverse the image 
horizontally, select [Horizontal]. If 
you wish to reverse the image 
vertically, select [Vertical].

The brightness and contrast can be adjusted in the print settings when printing a photo or other image. These settings 
can be used for simple corrections when you do not have image editing software installed on your computer.

When printing a colour image in greyscale, colour text 
and lines that are faint can be printed in black. (Raster 
data such as bitmap images cannot be adjusted.) This 
allows you to bring out colour text and lines that are faint 
and difficult to see when printed in greyscale.

• [Text To Black] can be selected to print all text other 

than white text in black.

• [Vector To Black] can be selected to print all vector 

graphics other than white lines and areas in black.

Adjust the image settings.
To adjust a setting, drag the slide bar

Preset colour settings are available in the machine's printer driver for [Graphics], [Photo], and other image types. These

configure settings to match the printing purpose of the colour image, such as colour management settings and the 
screening setting that adjusts the expression of colour tones.

• [Windows ICM] checkbox: Colour management method
• "Source Profile": Select the colour profile used to display the image on the computer screen.
• "Rendering Intent": Standard value used when converting the colour balance of the image displayed on the computer 

screen to a colour balance that can be printed by the machine.

• "Screening": Select the most suitable image processing method for the image being printed.
• "Neutral Gray": Select the toner colour used to print grey areas.
• "Print Priority": Select whether you wish to give priority to image quality or speed when printing.
