A couple of things.

1.  I see the term TTS being used throughout this forum...being new I have no idea what that means?

2.  Can I save a setting somewhere automatically some brightness to the images before they print?  e.g. without having to do it manually.

Thanks all.

TTS is a term that refers to a wonderful new feature in Qimage Ultimate called Tone Targeted Sharpening.
To simplify, it allows you to sharpen parts of your image independent of other parts by selecting the tone of areas of the image.

Please see the main Qimage web page for samples and explanations.

Yes you can. There are a few ways to do this, One way is to select the "G" on the main screen for Global filter and select the filter that will lighten your image.
There are two premade filters to lighten the image, or you can set the brightness yourself, and then save the filter in the Image Editor screen, giving it a name that you can find.
Then select that filter in "G"

If you have a number of images in the queue, and you want to apply brightness to all of them, you can set the first image brightness, and then click DONE. Qimage will ask you to apply the filer, and offer a check dot to apply to all images in the queue.
Many ways to accomplish this.

The other way is to use a Print Filter.
To create a filter to increase brightness use any image that does not have any existing filter at all. Then Save Current Parameter to File, from the Editor file menu, using a suitable name.
At the bottom right of the main QU screen there is a tick box for Pint Filter, tick that, you will be prompted to select a filter so choose the one you made.
The advantage of using a Print Filter does not affect the appearance of the image on screen, the effect is seen only in the print.
If your prints are consistently coming out too dark, you might try a Print Filter with Fill rather than a Brightness increase. This will lift mainly the shadow areas and leave the bright areas alone.
