Default Inkjet print a good indicator of adequate levels for a Boots photoprint?

Yep. What may work is print a photo then make the screen match the
print via the screens brightness and contrast controls to "calibrate"
the screen. Then when you load another photo and make it look right
on screen it ought to print right as well.

Not that'd I'd put any money on it, too many variables that simple
brightness/contrast don't have any influence over.
