Fine Print 3

The Auto Fine Print 3 analyses the
pictl_re information
of an image,
including the Exit data, and corrects the
resulting picture.
You can select a
correction option from "Vivid" to
improve the vividness of an image, or
"Photographical"
to make an image
look more natural and beautiful. Thanks
to the heat-resistance
process and a
high-speed CPU, Auto Fine Print 3
realizes even higher-definition
reproduction
and quicker adjustments
than the previous Auto Fine Print 2
could.

-°"_J_i# _#i"t

The printer supports Exit 2.2.
Coupled with the Auto Fine Print 3
feature, the printer automatically
adiusts an image of an Exit Printcompliant digital camera and prints it
with optimal picture quality.
When you use the supplied
PictureGear Studio software to print
an image from your PC, you can
choose Exit Print picture correction in
addition to the conventional OS
picture correction.
In Exit Print
correction, the supplied printer driver
uses the Exit data of an image and the
printer's color processing to adjust
and reproduce an image with
supreme picture quality.
