The printed image is blurry or smeared
The colors displayed
on your monitor don’t
match the printed
colors.
Because your monitor and printer use different technologies to represent
colors, your printed colors cannot exactly match the colors you see on
your monitor screen. Use the ICM (Windows 95 and 98) setting. See
Using Predefined Advanced Settings
for more information.
The color settings in
your application
software need
adjustment.
You may be able to adjust various color settings in your application
software. See your software documentation for more information.
