Hmmm...

Saturation (at least in the HSV model) is pretty much a synonym 
for vividness.

Are you talking about what you see when you print it out?  Is it 
too dark or muddy?  That can also be called saturation, but it's 
a different concept, and may be better discussed by the folks 
involved in Gutenprint.

If I don't have that right, you might want to look at the 
following site:

and make sure you've got the right term.
