Using PRINT Image Matching
With PRINT Image Matching, special print instructions are saved in your digital
photo files. For example, macro mode pictures might include print commands for
sharpness and clarity, while portrait mode pictures might emphasize soft focusing and
subtle flesh tones. If your digital camera supports PRINT Image Matching (P.I.M. or
P.I.M II), you can use this technology when you print with:

■ P.I.M. II Plug-in for Adobe Photoshop
Using Film Factory
If your digital camera supports PRINT Image Matching, P.I.M. II, or Exif Print, you
can use these technologies when you print with Film Factory to ensure the most
accurate image reproduction. Printing with P.I.M. isn’t complicated, and it provides
the color corrections right from your P.I.M. image file, so you don’t have to correct
them yourself. Just leave the PRINT Image Matching box checked.
You can also use Film Factory to organize, retouch, and print non-P.I.M. and
non-Exif Print digital images.
For instructions on using Film Factory, see the on-screen Getting Started Guide in
your Film Factory program group or folder.
Using the P.I.M. II Plug-in for Adobe Photoshop
The P.I.M. II Plug-in for Adobe Photoshop allows you to retain the P.I.M. or Exif
Print image quality when you import JPEG or TIFF files from your P.I.M.- or Exif
Print-enabled digital camera. The P.I.M. II Plug-in works with Photoshop 6.0 and
7.0, and Photoshop Elements 1.0 and 2.0. You’ll also need to use the ICC profiles for
your printer that are installed with the plug-in (Windows) or the printer driver
(Macintosh).
