Printing One to One

I could use some assistance trying to figure out how I can print a image at one to one so that the print is at size as. I believe there is a quick way of calculating this but unsure where to begin.
My images will include a ruler as a reference point and the goal is to have a print so the ruler reproduces at its actual size.
Thanks!

If you want to get exact about displaying print size:
Open a new 500 pixel x 500 pixel file in Photoshop, and set it to 100% (view actual pixels) if it does not come up that way.
Get out a ruler and measure the image on screen in inches.
Divide 500 by the measurement.
This is the resolution of your screen.
Move the decimal point 2 places to the right in that number, and write it down somewhere. Call it your monitor factor.
For InDesign or Illustrator viewing actual size assumes a monitor of 72ppi, so to fine tune actual size in those apps, divide your monitor factor by 72 to get the % view you need for those apps to see same size.
For Photoshop, divide your monitor factor by the resolution (in ppi) of whatever image you are working on to determine the right zoom percentage for that image.
Enter that figure in Photoshop > Preferences > Units & Rulers > New Document Preset Resolutions > Screen > Resolution >. Then you can just select the Zoom tool and click on the "Print Size" button to have your image automatically show at actual print size on your screen.
(You can also enter that figure when you create a new Photoshop document, and that will set the correct print size on all your files, including existing ones.)
This has been the case since CS2.

  • Can only print one item at a time

    Hey everyone,
    Bit of a Photoshop novice here, use it for DVD covers and labels. I have been using CS3 previously but upgraded to CS5.5 last year. The thing is on CS5.5 I can only print one page at a time even when I input say 20 copies to be printed, only one will print. That goes for the regular printer for printing covers and the disc printer.
    I can open CS3 up and right away it will print however many I ask it to.
    Is there something I am missing? Something so painfully obvious that it is staring me in the face but I am just not seeing it?
    Thanks in advance!

    It isn't a printer setting. I have 3 different printers connected to my system and all of them worked with CS3 fine. And when I delete the preferences folder for CS5.1 it works as it should but only once, then afterwards it only prints one copy, no matter how many I ask it to print!
    So if it works when the preferences have been removed, then fails to work afterwards, how can that be a printer setting?
    I have read elsewhere that others have had similar issues with CS5 and Windows 7.

  • I am trying to print all the PDF pages in a range of 5 pages but can only print one page at a time . . . It will print the current page, but not all or pages 1-5.  Can this be overcome?

    I am trying to print all the PDF pages in a range of 5 pages but can only print one page at a time . . . It will print the current page only, but not all or pages 1-5.  I need to go to the next subsequent page and command to print current page; continuing with this procedure until all pages are printed one at a time. Can this be overcome?

    You can use printPages(1, 5), however I need to know how you print current page.

  • Is it possible to print one document to two printers?

    I need to print one document to two printers at the same time.
    Can I accomplish this with printer pools in OSX Server?  I've found several 3rd party vendors for Windows, but nothing for the Mac.
    Any help would be great!
    Thanks!
    Josh

    Thanks Alec!
    Is there a way to get the print pool to print to both printers at the same time?  With the pool it just switches the jobs between the two right?
    I actually need to click Print once, and have it print on both printers.
    Thanks for your help!

  • How do I print one page at a time for a photobook .pse project?

    I am trying to print a photobook project one page at a time as I am using double sided paper that I need to turn over.  One other project I did asked me if I wanted both sides and would I do the turning myself, but this one doesn't.  I also wanted no border on the prints and it came out with a border.  It is also frustrating to have to wait for it to load 75 pages and then it prints them back to front.  Is this PSE or the printer software?

    Yes, you can print one page one at time as you want .
    In print dialog, select other pages and click on remove button.(refer to screenshot).
    For border click on more options and ensure check box is not selected ( refer to screenshot)

  • HOW TO PRINT ONE RECORD PER ONE PAGE

    Hi I have report , with two queries. Each query has one group with the same data. lets say the queries are Q1 and Q2. The Groups are with column DeptNo, and DeptNo1 both pointing to the same column DEPTNO. Now I want to design it in such a manner that it shoudl print each group , one record per page, but same group on the same page. For Example
    ON PAGE 1
    DpetNo 10
    Emp1
    Emp2
    Emp3
    DeptNo1 10
    Emp1
    EMp2
    Emp3
    ON PAGE 2
    DeptNo 20
    Emp4
    Emp5
    DeptNo1 20
    Emp4
    Emp5
    ON PAGE 3
    DeptNo 30
    Emp6
    Emp7
    Emp8
    DeptNo1 30
    Emp6
    Emp7
    Emp8
    How the lay our will be ? What will be the conditions. I can set the property in each group to print one record per page. But how to make it so that it will print like above.
    Thanks
    FEROZ

    Hi Feroz,
    You can create a query Q0 to return DeptNo 10, DeptNo 20..... and make it as the parent of Q1 and Q2. Then you can print one dept per page.

  • Can you print one event at a time?

    I can only find options to print out a day's schedule, or week or month, etc. Is there any way to print just one event?

  • Can only print one page at a time

    Using Adobe Reader 9.4.2
    Operating system Arch Linux
    Printer Brother DCP-115C
    When trying to print more than one page at a time in a PDF document,
    Adobe Reader appears to create the print
    the print job appears in my print queue
    the printer says 'Receiving Data', but only momentarily
    the printer resumes 'normal' status
    the printer does not print anything
    It is as if there is very little data actually sent to the printer, even though the print job appears to be 254k in size
    When I try to print one page at a time from a PDF document
    Adobe Reader appears to create the print
    the print job appears in my print queue
    the printer says 'Receiving Data' for several seconds
    the printer prints the page
    no problem
    It seems to me that Adobe is creating a print job (for multiple pages) that the printer either does not understand, or the printer believes that there is nothing to print.
    I am able to print everything that I need to, but only one page at a time!
    Does anyone else experience this problem? Do you know how to overcome this?

    You can use printPages(1, 5), however I need to know how you print current page.

  • Laserjet 2100 will only print one page at a time.

    I recently acquired a second hand Laserjet 2100 Series. Installation was fine but it will only print one page at a time, I have to keep pressing the 'Go' button, which is very frustrating. The manual tells me that it is in 'Manual' mode but not how to change it. Can anyone help, please? O/S Windows 7. Thank you.

    This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

  • Appleworks will only print one page at a time, please help!

    hi there ~
    no matter how many times I ask the printer to print ALL pages, it will only print one at a time, so I have to manually print page 18, 17, etc....
    Could this be because the pages are arranged left to right? that would seem strange.
    also, I cannot find a function to re-arrange the pages. for example, i want to re-organize to make page 18 at the front as page 1. I just don't get it though I've searched the program.
    THANKS SO MUCH!

    Hi td,
    Welcome to AppleDiscussions and the AppleWorks forum.
    "no matter how many times I ask the printer to print ALL pages, it will only print one at a time, so I have to manually print page 18, 17, etc...."
    My memory says the same as Yvan's.
    If the printer dialogue has a checkbox labeled "Collate", make sure the box is checked, even if you are printing a single copy. If memory serves, this suggestion was made in connection with HP printers.
    A second possible solution is to specify the page range when printing this document (or others that exhibit this problem). (eg. for a 25 page document specify printing From page 1 To page 25.) You might try specifying p. 1 to p. 99 for any document under 100 pages, although I don't know what effect this would have for a 5 page doc.
    regards,
    Barry

  • InDesign CS5 only prints one page at a time.

    InDesign CS5 only prints one page at a time. No multiple copies. Each page in a document has to be printed one at a time. I didn't have this problem with any version before this. No matter what I do, change settings, etc. I still have the same outcome. How do I work around this problem so I can print a 5 copies of a 3 page document without having to do each copy of each page one at a time.

    Sounds like a printer driver issue. Can you export to PDF and print that correctly?

  • LaserJet 200 color MFP printer - one laptop can print while the other laptop at home can't.

    My boyfriend and I set up the LaserJet 200 color MFP printer at home and installed the software on both our laptops.  I have a Dell Inspiron 700m and he's got the Lenovo T400.  I have been able to print any time from my laptop, but my boyfriend has only been able to print one document and after that there is a printer error and is not able to print nor troubleshoot.  I uninstalled and re-installed the software one more time, and again, he was only able to print one document and after that, printer error again (does not specify error).  Meanwhile, I continue to be able to print without a problem.  Anything I may be overlooking? Any help will be appreciated.

    What OS are you using?
    Which of the LaserJet 200 series printers do you have? There are several in that series and I want to make sure I'm helping with the right one.
    How is the printer connected to the computers?

  • Why has my hp deskjet 2050 printer and scanner suddenly slowed down and printing one line at a time

    This is usually indicative of a defective print cartridge.  Suspect the black is low in ink or defective.  Please check all cartridges.

  • Networked HP Laserjet 1022 only prints one copy at a time!!

    Hi, I am using a HP Laserjet 1022 printer connected to a Windows Network. Although the exact driver is not listed I get around using the closest driver in the list. Under Tiger everything was fine, after upgrading to Leopard I can only print one copy of a document at a time. When I put any number of copies in the box only one copy is printed.
    Thank you in advance.

    read this thread here and my solutions about the 1020.
    The driver is also for 1022.
    Works great with leopard and 1020, needs to work perfect with leopard and 1022.
    Download and do as I describe.
