Question:
Using the Olympus software supplied with the camera, how do I optimize settings for use with my printer?
Answer:
The Olympus software has an option to use the dedicated drivers for your printer, enabling you to select the paper type, paper size, print quality and other settings so you can control the printed output. Using the print options you can print photos in different layout templates, or print index and contact sheets of thumbnail images to help in archiving your images when you save them to CDs or DVDs.
