150 Solving Problems
■ The ink cartridges may be old or low on ink; see “Replacing Ink Cartridges”
on page 131.
■ Make sure you loaded the correct paper type and selected the correct setting
for it in your software or on the RX600 screen.
■ Try turning off PhotoEnhance in your printer software. Also check if you’re
using a special effect that alters image colors, like Sepia.
■ Try using Automatic mode (Macintosh); see page 43.
■ Try changing the Gamma setting; see “Customizing Windows Print Settings”
on page 39 or “Customizing Macintosh Print Settings” on page 49.
■ If the Stylus Photo RX600 runs out of paper, load additional paper as soon as
possible. If the Stylus Photo RX600 is left without paper for a long period of
time, the colors of your next copy or print job may be incorrect.
■ Your printed colors can never exactly match your on-screen colors. However,
you can use a color management system, such as ICM or ColorSync, to get as
close as possible. See “Customizing Windows Print Settings” on page 39 or
“Customizing Macintosh Print Settings” on page 49.

■ Make sure your Stylus Photo RX600 is selected in your application, or as the
Windows default printer.
The image size or position is incorrect.

button on your printer settings window for more information. If you’re copying
without a computer, check the layout settings on the RX600 screen; see
“Changing the Copy Layout” on page 26.
