The image has a metallic hue (bronzing)
Bronzing describes an image that has a metallic hue when it is viewed from specific angles. Bronzing occurs
most commonly when you print pigmented inks on non-matte paper, such as photo paper. If you are using
standard print-quality options and the image contains the bronzing effect, move the slider to Quality. See
Select print quality on page 83.
If you are experiencing bronzing when printing images on glossy paper, try using the Full Set of Inks printing
option. To do so from the Windows driver, click the Color tab, and then select the Full Set of Inks option.
