Changing the Type of
Black Ink
This printer allows you to set both photo black ink and
matte black ink and switch between them depending on
the paper type.
Photo Black ink reduces the grainy feeling of photo
papers giving them a smooth, professional finish. Matte
Black ink significantly increases black optical density
when printing on matte type papers.
See the following section to select a suitable black ink for
the media type.
