Image size problem when printing

After printing a few 6" x 4" prints on my Epson Stylus Photo printer I found that all my images were enlarged so cropped off slightly.  I now find that if I pre set the image size in library custom mode (6000x4000) first before print then they print the correct size.  Is this normal practice or can I set the correct image size in print mode so as not to crop off?  All my original images are either raw or tiff and considerably larger than print size.  In print mode all my margins are set to 0.00 and cell size to 6.00 x 4.00.

If you are going to print an image at 6x4, then you need to first use the crop tool in Lightroom and crop your image to a 6x4 aspect ratio. If your image is any other aspect ratio, the image will wind up enlarged and some of the image will not fit on the paper, as you have seen.

  • Image Size Problems when printing on Epson printers

    Hello all,
    Here's what I have- I am running Photoshop CS 5.1 on a new Mac Mini, using OS 10.6. I am up to date on all software updates for both the Mac OS and Adobe.
    As of two weeks ago, whenver I send an image to print on my Epson 4900 or Epson 4880 it prints much smaller than the intended size. For instance, I have an 11x17 piece of paper and it is printing an image that is roughly 6x9in, even though my image size is really 10x16. I know that I have the correct paper size. I even tried creating a custom paper size to no avail.
    After few weeks of trying to figure out the problem, I decided to install a copy of CS4 on the machine. CS4 is working properly and I have not had any resizing issues......That is until today....Now, my Epson 4880 is having the same problem printing as when I was going through CS5.1
    I trashed the preferences.....That didnt work either.
    Any thoughts?

    As of two weeks ago...
    What happened two weeks ago...?

    Try Epson's Advanced Product Support Center (I believe your 4880 qualifies for it)

  • Image quality problem when Printing Booklet to PDF

    Hi!
    I've searched the entire web trying to find a working solution for my problem but I wasn't able to find anything...
    I've created a A5 vertical page document in InDesign CS6, filled with High-Quality photographs. I now want to print it as a booklet (to a PDF file) so I can save it and print it in a professional establishment.
    The problem is, when I do this, the image quality turns out terrible...
    I've checked my Print Settings and I can't find anything wrong...
    Setup - A4 horizontally, and Graphics - Images - Send Data - is set to All.
    Is there anything else I can do/try? What can I be doing wrong?
    Here is an image of my print settings:
    When I export the document normally to PDF the image quality is fine, but it doesn't have the booklet layout which I need, it just exports single A5 pages one after the other. If I try to print this pdf as a booklet in Adobe Reader the same thing happens to the images, they loose quality.
    Please help!!
    Thanks : )

    Hi! Thank you for your quick and helpful answer.
    There's definetly something wrong with the PDF printer properties... It was on standard default, as you said... but it still didn't work when I changed it to press quality (also tried high-quality print), changed the dpi's and other few settings on the advanced preferences
    My solution was to download a free-trial of a professional pdf editor/creator (Soda PDF) and print it to that program... but, of course, this is not a long-term solution...
    I'll try and see if I can find any help in changing the settings to get the best quality in printing of the adobe acrobat program.
    Thanks!
    p.s: I think I meant to say "graphic press" when I wrote professional establishment, I'm not sure how you say it in English.

  • Performance problem when printing - table TSPEVJOB big size

    Hi,
    in a SAP ERP system there is performance problem when printing because table TSPEVJOB has many millions of entries.
    This table has reached a considerable size (about 90 Gb); db size is 200 Gb.
    Standard reports have been scheduled correctly and kernel of SAP ERP system is updated.
    I've tried to scheduled report RSPO1041 (instead of RSPO0041) to reduce entries but it is not possible run it during normal operations because it locks the printing system.
    Do you know why this table has increased ?
    Are there any reports to clean this table or other methods ?
    Thanks.

  • Why does an image size 6x6 240 print out 6.25x6.25 when I drag it into a new file 24x7  240?  When I print it before I drag it into the new file it prints out 6x6.

    Why does an image size 6x6 240 print out 6.25x6.25 when I drag it into a new file 24x7  240 image size?  If I print it before I drag it into the 24x7 240 file it prints 6x6.

    What is the number 240 meant to indicate here – the resolution? If so please also give the unit.
    And what are your printer and the print settings you use, could there be any scaling involved in the printing itself?

  • Problems when printing help topics from OHJ

    We have encountered some persistent problems when printing help topics from Oracle Help for Java (Ice Browser).
    NOTE: When we print the same source files from Oracle Help for the Web, the printing problems are gone.
    (1) Spacing Errors (all printers had identical results)
    Text with special formatting (<b>, <i>) often has either too much space or not enough space.
    Links often have extra spaces underlined before or after the link, itself.
    (2) When printing multiple help topics from the TOC (an entire branch in the tree):
    On some printers, no graphics print correctly, but instead print as one of the following: 1. empty box the size of one character, 2. black box the size of one character, 3. black box the size of the original graphic. We could not detect a pattern that caused 1, 2, or 3.
    NOTE: all graphics are bit maps (screen captures) that were generated in the same manner.
    NOTE: if these same help topics are printed one at a time form Oracle Help for Java, the graphics print fine.
    Is this a problem with the Ice Browser?
    Thanks for the help,
    Wendy Studinski

    There are a known issue with the ICEBrowser printing in some circumstances. The laying out of text by the ICE Browser relies on font metrics (being able to measure the width of a run of text in a given font). On screen it looks great, but when printing, even though the GraphicsConfiguration for the printer is being used, these widths are sometimes off, which can result in text running together at boundaries between text styles. We're not sure what to do about this problem, and we've reported it to IceSoft.
    Not every font has this problem, so varying the font you are using might help the appearance when printed.
    The other problem you report, problems with the images when printing multiple topics, is something that we will look into.

  • Image size changes when moving an image between Lightroom and CC.

    Image size changes when moving an image between Lightroom and CC.
    I opened a .dng image in LR and then opened it in the Develop module.  I clicked on Crop Overlay and then on the ‘As Shot’ drop down menu (the lock is closed) and cropped to 11 x 17 and clicked ‘Done’-.
    I click Cntl-E and the image opens in CC.  There I click on Image > Image Size and the Image Size  is 13.288 inches by 20.533 inches.
    Why does the image size change?
    I believe there is a menu to control the size of the image and I've looked everywhere I can think of in LR and CC, I googled various descriptions and I checked two of Scott Kelby's books, but I just can't figure out how to keep the image a consistent size when moving between LR and CC.
    Help!...Please?

    The penny will drop soon or maybe the cloud will lift.
    In Lightroom all editing is undoable/nondestructive.
    Hence a crop of 3x2 is not inches, centimetres, pixels or anything else. It is jst a ratio. When a file is exported, either to PS or disk, then the crop ratio has size determined in respect of pixels and inches or cms.
    So my 6000x5000 pixel image I will crop to 3x2 that leaves (before exporting) a 6000x4000 file.
    Now when exported it can be set to export at
    100pixels per inch and will end up at 60x40" when printed.
    200pixels per inch will end up at 30x20"
    300ppi will end at 20x13.3"
    You will notice in the Crop Tool there are no size denominations such as inches or centimetres as an image file only has pixels and the determination of size is done through exporting or printing.
    Hope that helps somewhat..

  • Color management problem when printing

    (sorry for the double post, since the problem affect both illustrator and photoshop and in fact also indesign) in decided to repost it here in the photoshop forum. thank you for any help!)
    hi ! im in charge of a big print lab in a university. All macpro quad running on 10.6.4, CS5 all updated.
    i  have a major problem when printing from all 3 CS5 apps : Illustrator  (being the worst), photoshop and indesign : each one produces a  different print even if i use the SAME color management options (the  application manage color using my own color profile file created with a  i-one tool from greta macbeath and using eye-one match 3). im printing  on a XEROX 7750gx laser printer. very cool printer never had trouble  with colors before with it, in any case it was always the software part  that was causing color problems (like i suspect in this case).
    how  can 3 softwares under the same application collection and brand, using  the same color profile and options (IDENTICAL ! it's triple check all  the options!) can produce 3 different prints when printing the same  image (it's a color psd created under photoshop CS5) ?!
    i  remember having some trouble like this when we first got CS1 in our lab,  but not this bad... i've checked everything... i realy don't know how  to fix this problem...
    the best setting so far is in  Photoshop when the application manage the color and using my color  profile file in perceptual mode. best output so far, not the best i had  in the past, CS4 was way more perfect with color management.
    i  realy need to find a solition 'cause the students expect the color to  be almost perfect (and they almost were using CS4 in the past...
    thanx for any tips & help !
    +

    many thanx for your reply & help.
    i've just recalibrated everything in my workflow : my screen (perfect!), my xerox 7750 color laser printer. i've recreated a new color profile file for the xerox color. and the same thing is happening : a kind of pink color all over my prints and every adobe's applications is printing different results. in photoshop i can manage the problem when forcing to print in perceptual mode. not perfect but it's fine. and with the other software specialy like ACROBAT and INDESIGN there's no option like this so it prints very badly. only option is to print in adobe 1998 rgb or SWOP cmyk (depending of the color space of the image of course)... the image is use for my test is RGB. images in CMYK are doing the same exact thing.
    by the way for calibration is use an x-rite (greta macbeth) eye-one tool with eye-one match 3.6.3. i calibrate the screens and create color profile with this tool since ADOBE CS1 and never had this much trouble with colors...
    here's a capture from photostop CS5 print dialog. when using the option "match print colors" you can see the image with all the PINK NOISE when using the print in RELATIVE colormetric mode (at the bottom right). using perceptual is "fine" (not color perfect but OK).
    http://i53.tinypic.com/qzge12.jpg
    it's worst in Acrobat and Indesign since i can't use perceptual colormetric print mode...
    im realy starting to think that i better uninstal CS5 and go back to CS4...
    thanx for your help !

  • Report file size limitation when printing?

    Does anyone know of a file size limitation when printing a .NET run Crystal report? We run a browser app, which opens a new browser when a report is printed. That works fine. When we PRINT, the ActiveX print dialog box appears. If the report is large (> 40 pages or so) it crashes our entire application. It works ok if we export to PDF then print, but I am trying to get to the bottom of why it is crashing.

    Hello,
    What version of Cr and .NET?
    Does your printer have limited memory?
    Is it local printer?
    Have you tried installing the latest Drivers for it?
    What Browser are you using and have you tried any other?
    40 pages not much local memory so it shouldn't be a problem.
    Create a new Printer and select File rather than port or LPT as the destination to see if it's a physical printer or network issue.
    Try a different printer altogether also.
    Also refer to Rule of Engagement posting before submitting your question so you provide as much info first.
    Thank you
    Don

  • Problem when printing " " using XSL

    I have a problem when printing the "<" .It is always printed as
    "&#60;" in the HTML file.
    I wish to transfer a Javascript text . I tried
    using CDATA . This is an extract of a portion in my XSL File
    which uses CDATA.
    <![CDATA[
    function createLOV(lov_name, array_touse) {
    document.writeln("<select name='" + lov_name + "'>");

    document.writeln("<option value='" + array_touse[i] + "'>" +
    array_touse[i] + "</option>");
    }]]>
    And this is what the HTML file contains
    function createLOV(lov_name, array_touse) {
    document.writeln("&#60;select name='" + lov_name + "'>");
    for (var i=0; i &#60; array_touse.length; i++) {

    I tried using the <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"> but in
    vain.
    If i use < or &x3C; , i still get &#60; in the HTML file.
    How do I solve this problem. I'm using XSQL Servlet with JSDK2.1

    Currently, the parser does not support the xsl:output and
    output-escaping mechanisms. We plan on adding support for this
    in a future release.

  • "Problem When Printing" error on Mac Mini

    Hi all,
    I just recently updated my Mac Mini from 10.3 to 10.4. Instead of Archive and Install I formatted and did a clean install.
    I have my printer set up, however whenever I try and print anything from any application I get a very unhelpful "Problem when printing" error, and nothing prints.
    I also get the same error when trying to save to PDF.
    My printer is a HP Deskjet 3750, and the driver is the one included with 10.4 (as per HP's instruction), but I don't think it's a driver problem as Save to PDF gives me the same error.
    I've already tried repairing permissions. Anyone know what could be causing this. Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Bugger. PSR is often a winner
    You could try installing Gutenprint 5.0.1 available from Sourceforge (it's about 15MB). It's an updated version of the included GIMP-Print drivers and may repair/replace/install some of the core files. Otherwise you may have to contact Apple and see if you can get 10.4.9 mailed to you.

  • Problem when printing booklets prints pages 1,2 and 11 as if I wants to print all

    I am using XP and 2000 MS word
    I am having a problem when printing booklets from time to time. I get it ready to print in booklet form with 12 pages and my printer gives me the options. “Print all”  “current page”  “selection” or “pages”  Because it is booklet I want to print the first 4 pages to be folded and glued as a small book. When I inter 1-4 as the example shows some times it prints OK but about a week later it prints pages 1,2 and 11 as if it wants to print all. I thought it was the printer but think it could be in some setting of the word program or my computer it self.

    Also does this (i.e. prints web pages over several pages despite changing settings) on my laptop at work with an HP printer. This started when I upgraded to Firefox 9.0.1.

  • Document size error when printing with Acrobat XI Standard

    Hello,
    I seem to be having a problem when I try to print to my Colorwave 600 plotter, using Acrobat XI Standard. I am trying to print a 36" wide document, but for some reason when the printer receives the information, it thinks I'm asking for a 42" wide print. The biggest paper the colorwave can use is 36", so this is problematic.
    The sheet size in Acrobat is set correctly. The problem is only when the printer receives the information.
    If I select "print as image" in advanced settings, it prints. I'm just confused why this would happen, and why printing as an image would work? I would prefer not to print as image as it makes the text in my files jagged.
    I have tried wiping my print drivers and reinstalling, but this didn't help. Also, this problem only happens printing from a PC. It works fine if I print from a Mac.
    Any advice?

    My workaround by using a virtual PDF printer isn't as good as I hoped. If the files generated by printing with flashplayer exceed about 3 pages the temp file generated in /var/spool/cups is so big that it exceeds my partitions size.
    The file can get up to more than 1GB. With documents from one or two pages the temp file is about 500MB, the correct pdf gets generated after that and is placed under /var/spool/cups-pdf/<user> and is about 500kb small. The very big temp file get's deleted after that.
    Why is this temp file so big and how can I avoid it getting so big?

  • Resolution problem when printing JPanel with picture on bg

    Hellow!
    I have some problems with printing JPanel component. I have a picture drawn on the background of the JPanel and several buttons on it. The whole JPanel is about 1600x800px. When i print whole the component with the help of PDF virtual printer, component is printed larger than A4 list. It is strange for me because print resolution is 600 dpi, so whole component must be a rectangle with the size about 2.5x1.5 inches. When I scale the graphics before painting component to fit image to page (i mean ... {color:#ff0000}g2d.scale(sc,sc); panel.paintAll(g2d);{color} ...), the picture's quality becomes very bad.
    I understod it so: I draw the component on the paper in screen resolution, then I decrease image size, so quality also decreases.
    My question is: how to draw on the graphics of printing paper the component in printers resolution (600dpi), but not in screen resolution.
