PRINTING 5 X 7 PHOTOS

I am using an epson C86 and i am trying to print 5x7 print with Iphoto 6. Can anyone tell me how to do this. I use to be abe to do it in iphoto 5.

Arnold:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. With many Epsons there are two drivers that need to be added, the normal and the borderless. Is the C86 like that?
Here are the steps I take to print:
Steps for printing 4 x 6 prints from iPhoto:
<li crop the photo to 5 x 7 beforehand in iPhoto's edit window.</li>
in Page Setup select the borderless printer driver, proper page orientation and paper size, i.e. 5 x 76 or 5 x 7 borderless
click once on the picture you want to print to make sure it's selected.
now click on the Print button in iPhoto.
in the iPhoto print window, select your printer again, select Style = "Standard Prints", Size= 5 x 7 and click on One photo per page.
click on the Print button.
That should do it. Here's Apple's version: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=165538.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • My problem is that after printing the first photo or picture, when I come to print a second, both the Colour Management and Epson Colour Controls are greyed out and showing No Colour Management

    I have recently purchased a Mac computer (updated to Maverick) to go with my Epson Stylus Photo RX500 printer which has given excellent service with my old Windows computer. However, when trying to print pictures or photos via Photoshop Elements 11, the best results I can get are using the Colour Management and Epson Colour controls in the printing options box.
    My problem is that after printing the first photo or picture, when I come to print a second, both the Colour Management and Epson Colour Controls are greyed out and showing No Colour Management, The only way I can reset the controls is to shut down the printer and computer and restart.
    Could there may be a setting somewhere that I need to adjust please?  I have been in touch with Epson and they say that the Epson Colour controls are part of the Photoshop Elements software but a post on the Adobe forum brought no results and I am unable to contact Adobe.

    Hello Garry. Thanks for the reply. I guess I should have used a different title from "How do I post a question?" That should come after trying to resolved the colour settings first. However, to answer your question, after experimenting with all the different settings in Photoshop Elements and Epson software, I now start with PSE11 Colour settings then click "no colour management" then after clicking Print, I choose "More Options/Colour Management/Colour Handling/Printer Manages Colour" then I choose "Page Setup/Layout/Colour Matching" which then shows Epson Colour Controls but I also choose "Layout/Colour Management" which then shows "Colour Controls/Mode" I then of course choose an Epson printer profile depending on the paper I am using. I get good results but as I said, the Colour Matching and Colour Controls are then greyed out. Hope that makes sense.

  • How do I print titles on photos

    I would like to be able to print my photos with the title either on the edge of the photo or on the photo along one edge. I would also like to include the date, so years from now I know when the photo was taken. (Yes I know that I could write this on the back, but prefer having it printed with the photo.) Is there any way to do this in iphoto? (I presently use my Nikon software, which does this, but would like to switch to iphoto if I can figure out how to include the titles and dates.)

    Hi malachite,
    no not with iPhoto. You can set up another graphics program such as PS or PS Elements as an external editor within iPhoto Preferences and add your text to the photo there and save it with the same name and flattened. The edit will then be reflected within iPhoto.

  • Can no longer print selected iPhoto photo with HP printer

    iPhoto 09. Cannot print selected iPhoto photo with HP printer. I select the photo from iPhoto Library, go to File>print. The screen for Print comes up with another one on top of it that is blank but with text "Print...Processing 1..OK".  Clicking OK prints from that screen "Print, Processing page 1" (on correct 3x6 photo paper in black!).
    I have run Apple Software Update. Run Permissions with problems (one: "Permissions differ on Library/Printers/h...". Have reinstalled iPhoto which has left one icon on Dock and 3 on desktop: iPhoto 07-27-19.app; iPhoto.app; iPhoto Library that I don't know what to do with with them, so just use the one on the dock which opens iPhoto Library.
    Believe I read that after reinstalling iPhoto, a plug-in (possibly third party plug-in for HP?) must be installed. I have updated my HP printer to latest driver.
    Would you advise how I can print photos in my iPhoto Library again, and also get those iPhoto icons off my desktop which only confuse me.  Thank you for your prompt attention.

    Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

    Hi there,
    If you use the HP Home and Biz app: Select your image and then tap the printer options on the bottom of the screen. From here select your printer and near the bottom select your paper type.
    Check this post out for setting within OSX.
    Best of Luck!

  • Officejet pro 8000 wireless will not print from windows photo viewer. all other diagnostics ok.

    OS is Windows 7 Home Premium x 64. All functions and printing are ok with this unit, excepting for printing through Windows Photo Viewer. Have latest software, drivers, etc., and all HP software and hardware diagnostic tools check out ok.
    Checked Windows event log, and get Event 350, PrintService - Document  failed to print and was deleted because of corruption in the spooled file. The associated driver is: . Try printing the document again.
    There is no additional info on this event listed in the Microsoft TechNet Events and Errors Message Reporting Center
    When this happens, all of the lights on the printer flash very rapidly.
    To correct, I clear the queue through Explorer, Troubleshoot, and unplug printer to reset.
    Any suggestions appreciated.
    Thanks

    FYI, I got this to work by treating my printer as a wired printer, even though it allegedly has wireless functionality. Luckily, my ohter devices can print to it wirelessly. At least I don't need to replace my printer just yet...

  • I am trying to print a color photo on my MacBook Pro from iPhoto (not using Photoshop) using Epson 2200 printer, and everything I do in the Color Matching and Print Settings results in a photo with a pink cast to it. What am I doing wrong?

    I am trying to print a color photo on my MacBook Pro from iPhoto (not using Photoshop) using Epson 2200 printer, and everything I do in the Color Matching and Print Settings results in a photo with a pink cast to it. What am I doing wrong?

    Have you checked the ink cartridges and made sure the nozzles are clear? Are you able to print from outside of iPhoto with the correct color?
    Try the following: make temporary copy of the library and do the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.

  • Hi; i created a poster from pages, how do i save it to have it printed by a photo lab?

    Hello;
    Can documents and posters with photos and text created in pages be printed by a photo lab, or is it only on my own printer? 
    I can save my document onto a USB flash drive, but then will the photo lab be able to open it to print?
    do you know how to save the document properly so that the printer can open it?

  • Iphoto won't let me print a landscape photo

    iphoto won't let me print a landscape photo this is what it is doing when i go to print and it is driving me mad pleaseeee help

    That means your original library is damaged and requires first aid.  Do the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
    2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • Lines printing in edited photos on 3 HP printers

    We have three HP printers - one F4280 all-in-one and one 990cse connected to the same Vista computer and one 990cse connected to an XP. They are all printing horizontal lines in portrait view edited photos and vertical lines in landscape view. The lines are distinct about 1/16th of an inch wide and spaced about 1/16th of an inch apart and down the entire photo. This happens whether I have scanned the photo or gotten it from some other source. It is happening no matter what editing program I use - even if I only crop it using Windows Photo Gallery.
    I recently purchased a new photo editing program in hopes of correcting the problem, but I still have the same problem. I start with a fresh photo (one that I have never edited) and, after I edit it, there are never any lines visible on the screen but the printed page has the lines on it - like dark burgandy across a black dress - and light rose across lighter areas, but always distinct even lines. I like to edit photos and have been editing photos for years. I quit for a while and came back to it recently and have been having this problem. I would so much appreciate help.
       Addendum: One thing that worked for me just yesterday - I printed two 5x7 .tif photos on one page from the Windows Photo Gallery, and they didn't have the lines. I used HP premium plus photo paper glossy and set the printout for regular premium paper. When I had set it for premium photo paper, the lines printed. I tried this because when I printed that one on regular premium paper, I didn't get the lines. So, this morning I tried printing the same photo with premium plus photo paper and set for regular premium paper and that printed without lines also !! The picture is better on the photo paper even though the print setting was not for the photo paper. (I had scanned the photo from a full page 8.5x11 copy of the photo.) I am hopeful, but a little skeptical as to whether this will always work. Has another solution been found? Thank you.

    This only works for me with Windows Photo Gallery. When I try to print a Word Perfect document with an inserted picture or an Adobe Acrobat document that has a picture, the lines are there. I can create the WP document and save it, then save it as a .pdf document, then save the .pdf document as a .tif photo, then print the .tif photo from the Windows Photo Gallery. These are the step that I used to print:
    right click on the photo,
    select Preview (and it should open in the Windows Photo Gallery) or select "Open With" and select Windows Photo Gallery,
    select Print (and a print menu will show across the top),
    from the menu:
    select your printer,
    select Paper size (I have only tried Letter size for this),
    select Quality (mine is working at 300x300 dots per inch),
    select Paper type as hp premium paper (not photo paper),
    (I deselect the "Fit picture to frame," a personal preference)
    insert photo paper in printer and print.
       I had received a copy of my grandmother's picture (only one in existence as far as I know) and I so wanted to get a good printout after editing out some tears and I was able to get a good full page photo print by using this method. Maybe this will help someone else.
       I hope that someone can come up with a solution where pictures can be printed from any program. I would like to know if there is a solution. With three HP printers on hand, I don't want to start replacing printers.

  • Printing Wallet-sized photos in iPhoto '08

    I have a photo i took on my digital camera that I am trying to crop and print as a wallet-sized image. I have resized it to a 2x3 size, but when I go to the Print settings, the photo is massively zoomed in and i can't capture the entire image in the 2x3 space, I only get a portion of the face instead of the entire headshot. I try to edit the mask and realign and zoom out on the image, but it is already zoomed out as far as it will allow (even though there is a lot of photo not being displayed).
    Is there any way to work around this? Seems odd that if i want to print a wallet photo from an image i took i should be able to scale the entire image down to fit and not have to print it as an 8x10.

    Yes, I have also selected 2x3 in the print window. That is where the problem is occurring. If i leave it as standard 8x10 then I get the entire image in the photo print area. When I select anything smaller, then instead of sizing the entire image down to the new dimensions it basically just grabs that area from the larger picture and effectively zooms in on it. So instead of my daughter's entire head, i just get her nose and eye in the 2x3 image.

  • HP Photosmart Plus b209a prints lines through photos

    The printer is a few weeks old, but it never printed out photos correctly. There are vertical lines through landscape photos, and horizontal lines through potrait photos (this happens when I'm connected both via USB and wireless). The strange thing is that it prints photos perfectly when I print a test photo from the installation program (both via USB and wireless).
    I've been sent a replacement printer, but that didn't help. Now I've been in touch with HP support via mail over the last couple of weeks, but thats going nowhere - being asked the same (already answered) questions over and over again. I've been asked to try using the wrong paper size settings, various quality settings, upgrading drivers, etc. (was even asked to try using the wrong drivers, but that just crashed the printer).
    I'm using a HP Compaq 8510p, running 64bit Windows 7. My wife uses an IBM thinkpad (32bit Windows 7), and she has the same problem. At this point I'm not really expecting much from HP support any more, so hopefully someone on this forum might be able to help me.

    Are the lines regurlarly spaced? What is the spacing of the lines?  Is it different when printing in Best mode vs. Normal?  Are the lines dark, light or a color?

  • IPhoto- Can it print dates on photos?

    I would like to print dates on photos. Is this possible with iPhoto '08 Version 7.1.5 (378)?

    You’ll need an external editor to do that:
    In order of price here are some suggestions:
    Seashore (free)
    Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
    Acorn ($50 approx)
    Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
    There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate.
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • I have an I pad, hooked to a wireless printer , I need to print my bank statements. I know you have to snapshot it first, but it is printing on 4x6 photo paper is all. I need it to print on regular 8x10 paper so it will print the whole page and

    How can I print off my I pad for bank statements on reg paper not 4x6 photo paper?

    How nice of you to wait three whole minutes for an answer.
    I don't know what you mean by "I have to snapshot it first". Can you explain what you mean? If you're making a screenshot and printing from your photo application, you're going about things in a very odd way. You should be using the Share - Print icon from whatever app (Safari?) your bank statement is in.
