Re: 3800 driver - WOW is right! ($%^@!<----burst bubble)

This option is available on the 7800 so I would assume its the same.  I've tried it on glossy 
paper on the 7800 and you get a very warm print with loads of bronzing.  So it looks like 
its BO because the tone looks the same as when I tried BO with my 4000 on glossy media 
as well.  I haven't tried it with matte papers but assume it would work.
