exposed, contain dark areas or red eye, or have colors that appear washed out.
You can also select the Off setting if you prefer to edit the image manually in a software
program such as HP Photosmart Software.
TIP:You can remove red-eye coloring in the photo when using the Off or Basic
mode by selecting the Remove red eye check box.

Exif Print
Exif Print (Exchangeable Image File Format 2.2) is an international digital imaging
standard that simplifies digital photography and enhances printed photos. When a photo
is taken with an Exif Print-enabled digital camera, Exif Print captures information such as
exposure time, type of flash, and color saturation, and stores it in the image file. The
printer software then uses this information to automatically perform image-specific
enhancements to create outstanding photos.
To print Exif Print-enhanced photos, you must have the following items:
• A digital camera that supports Exif Print
• Exif Print-enabled photo software, such as HP Photosmart Software

							Storage
• Keep unused photo paper in a sealed plastic bag. Store the packaged photo paper
on a flat surface in a cool place.
• When you are ready to print, remove only the paper that you plan to use immediately
from the plastic bag. When you have finished printing, return any unused photo paper
to the plastic bag.
• Do not leave unused photo paper in the paper tray. The paper might start to curl,
which can reduce the quality of your photos.
Handling
• Always hold photo paper by its edges. Fingerprints on photo paper can reduce print
quality.
• If the corners of the photo paper curl more than 10 mm (0.4 inch), flatten the paper
by putting it in the storage bag, and then gently bending it in the opposite direction of
the curl until the paper lies flat.
Photo paper should be flat before it is printed on.
Save money and ink when printing photos
To save money and ink when printing photos, use HP Everyday Photo Paper and set the
print quality to Normal.
HP Everyday Photo Paper is designed to create quality photos with less ink.
NOTE:For higher-quality photos, use HP Premium Plus Photo Paper and set the
print resolution to Best or Maximum dpi. For more information on enabling the
maximum dpi mode, see 
Maximum dpi.
