If you frequently print using the same settings, create a custom setting using the Save Setting button within the printer software. For black-and-white 8x10-inch verticals, for example, you might name the setting BW810V. 18. Test Print. Create a test print and evaluate it for color and tonality. Try to judge the print in the lighting conditions under which you intend to display it. Different light sources (tungsten, sunlight, fluorescent) will make colors and tones appear different. 19.
