Adjusting the Printer Picture Quality

60

Selecting the Guide Print-RGB or Guide Print-DLGm 
layout before printing enables you to print a guide 
picture that has each of the RGB or DLGm parameters 
changed.

Guide pictures can be printed on UPC-X46 series, UPC-
X45 series, and UPC-X34 series paper.
The following is an example of a guide picture printout.

Selecting the Guide Print-RGB layout before printing 
enables a guide picture (adjustment simulation) to be 
printed for the RGB parameters. Since the picture used 
for printing is the picture being played back on the 
camera, you can actually adjust the picture quality while 

looking at the picture.
The picture in the center is printed using the current 
color tone adjustment values. Six playback images of 
differing color are printed around this picture.

The values below each of the pictures are for the R, G, 
and B parameters. If, for example, you want to use the 
color tone on the top left in the figure above, set the B 
parameter to +3 because (RED, GREEN, BLUE) = (0, 0, 
+3).

If you want to adjust (RED, GREEN, BLUE) = (0, 0, +3) 
further, set the B parameter to +3, and then print another 
Guide Print-RGB. This will give you a simulation for 
each color variation with (RED, GREEN, BLUE) = (0, 
0, +3) in the center.

The current state of each of the 
DARK, LIGHT, and GAMMA 
parameters is displayed for 
reference. 

This is a picture showing the RED 
parameter decreased by 3 from the 
current state. 
The subject appears a little darker 
than in the current picture, and 
overall the picture appears slightly 
cyan.

This is a picture showing the 
GREEN parameter increased by 3 
from the current state. 
The white saturated parts remain 
white and do not change. The 
subject appears a little lighter than in 
the current picture, and slightly 
green.

This is a picture showing the current 
state of the RED, GREEN, and 
BLUE parameters.

This is a picture showing the BLUE 
parameter increased by 3 from the 
current state. 
The white saturated parts remain white 
and do not change. The subject 
appears a little lighter than in the 
current picture, and slightly blue.

This is a picture showing the BLUE 
parameter decreased by 3 from the 
current state. 
The subject appears a little darker than 
in the current picture, and overall the 
picture appears slightly yellow.

This is a picture showing the RED 
parameter increased by 3 from the 
current state. 
The white saturated parts remain white 
and do not change. The subject 
appears a little lighter than in the 
current picture, and slightly red. 

This is a picture showing the GREEN 
parameter decreased by 3 from the 
current state. 
The subject appears a little darker than 
in the current picture, and overall the 
picture appears slightly magenta.
