Darker than expected prints

Dec 3, 2006

Rating: 5 out of 10 (Average)
Pros: Cheap, easy to use
Cons: Need to configure PC screen for WYSIWYG prints

However, after a few prints, I realise that I would need to brighten my photos with an editing software prior to printing to achieve the desired print quality. Otherwise, an okay product, nothing to shout about.
