    Using the Bundle Software
    The Setup Software & User’s Guide CD-ROM includes photo applications designed to edit 
    the photographs taken by a digital camera and print them as photo-lab quality prints. 
    Please use the application(s) suitable for your print purposes.
    „ Easy-PhotoPrint (Windows/Macintosh)
    You can make a Borderless Print easily and quickly, just by selecting a photograph 
    taken with a digital camera and the paper type  on which to print. Also it has tools to 
    correct red eye caused by the camera’s flash  or smooth and beautify facial skin. It is 
    compatible with Exif Print*.
    „ PhotoRecord (Windows)

    background, and clip-art. You can also copy or move decorated photos.

    * Exif Print is the worldwide standard. Under Exif Print, the digital camera can record data tags for specific camera 
    settings and functions such as whether the flash was on or  off, if the camera was in portrait or night scene mode, 
    etc.
    Canon PIXMA Printers support Exif Print and use a suitable photo application to read the camera data precisely, 
    producing optimal prints. This enables you to create prints that reproduce color more accurately.
