Printing Photos On Photo Paper


Recommended Posts

I just bought some A4 photo paper as I have some photos on my hard disk that i took with my digital camera that I want to print off as close to proper photos as possible. I havnt done this before so can you please give me some general tips about quality / sizing etc.

here are general tips:

higher quality better, lower quality worse

larger size=blurier, smaller size=less detail

what other general info do you need?

read instructions/manual for your printer and that fancy paper to find out what's the best printing mode/settings

You can size your photo's in Photoshop by inches.

Also you want to make sure your printer is set at the highest dpi (dots per inch).

It makes a big difference when it comes to quality in the picture.

Those settings should be somewhere in the printer options menu when you goto print in whatever photo application you're using.

Also set the printer to the specific paper.

This could also make a difference.

There might be some other options in the printer options menu that you could use to tweak the quality of your photo print outs, ie., Color, Sharpness, Contrast.....
