Printing Photos

I am using a Canon MP530 to print my photos from IPhoto. All my blacks have purple in them. The Canon staff worked with me and it is not the printer, as when I print from Photo Elements, it doesn't happen. Does anyone have any suggestions?

joandarling:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Do you have the iPhoto's advanced preferences set up like this? In the advance section of the Print window in iPhoto under the Copies and Pages menu you can go to the Colorsync and Color Options sections and make some adjustments there. However, I prefer to use PSE as my editor of choice in iPhoto and always print from it. I crop in iPhoto and the open in PSE via the Control-click contextual menu option "Open in external editor" (Set PSE as the iPhoto editor and the revert it back to "Main Window").
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.

  • How do I take 300 dpi photos with my iPhone 4s? And how do I export them to my MacBook Pro at 300 dpi to use as I want to print photos.

    How do I take 300 dpi photos with my iPhone 4s?
    And how do I export them to my MacBook Pro at 300 dpi to use as I want to print photos.
    I have been using the standard camera on the iPhone and require 300 dpi to create photo books as the photos are resized according the layout.
    Your time and assistance in appreciated.
    Thanks

    Thanks Tonefox!
    After looking at a few of the links I found a mathematical equation that assisted me.
    Inches = Pixels/DPI
    eg: 3 inches = 300 pixels/100 DPI
    Using this equation and the fact that iPhone 4s takes photos that are 3264 x 2448 I was able to work out the largest print I could make with 300 DPI.
    Width 3264 pix/ 300 DPI = 10.88 inches
    Height 2448 pix/ 300 DPI = 8.16 inches
    Therefore, the largest print (with 300DPI) I can make of these photos is 10.88 inches x 8.16 inches.
    Which is great!
    So is it critical for me to change the dpi in say photoshop or does it not matter as long as I don't go above the 10.88 inches x 8.16 inches?
    From what I can gather the smaller I resize the photo the higher the DPI and the bigger I stretch the photo the lower the DPI?
    Further clarification will be much appreciated. Thanks

  • Hp deskjet 1510 does not print photo without border.

    I am using Hp deskjet 1510 printer and my operating system is windows 7 ultimate. when i tried to print photo with full pages of A4 size paper without border but it doesn't print without border. so i need assist to solve this issue.
    thanks.

    Hello there! Welcome to the forums @horda ,
    I read about how you are trying to borderless print on A4 size media and it's not working out so well. After checking the printer specifications (below), you can see that this model of printer does not support borderless printing.
    I hope that helps clear up your concern!
    Have a fantastic day

  • Using eprint to print photos with email text on one page

    I have been using Presto eprint services for several years for my Dad, and I really like how it works and allows me to print the email (from, to, text in the body of the email), plus any attachments, all on one page using full letter size paper  However, my parents would like to get rid of their land-line phone, so I'm looking for options to replace the Presto printer.  I was thinking that HP eprint might be a good option, but based on some initial tests with a friends printer, it seems to just print photos as full page images, without the email content.  Is there anyway to confirgure the HP eprint function to print the email text and photos or PDF file attachment on one page?  Thanks.

    Hello @Joseph_TX ,
    Welcome to the HP forums.
    I understand that you want to know if a way to configure the HP ePrint.
    I would like to help.
    Unfortunately there is no way to reconfigure the ePrint.
    When you send an email to the printers ePrint address, it will print the body of the email and any attachments.
    It will not print the subject line or who the email is from.
    Also the ePrint feature will not resize pictures sent.
    What you send is what you get.
    You can get more control over ePrint with the ePrint app, but I don't believe that will suit your needs.

  • Problem printing photos in a lab with an exported iPhoto CD

    Hi all,
    I wanted to print photos from my iPhoto library. I filled a complete CD with photos (altogether 317 picutures) and brought it to a printing shop (Pharamprix in Canada) to let them do the printing. Please note I have done that with my Windows PC before and it worked fine.
    What has happened is the following. When I picked up the photos I could not believe what I saw, because I received around 700 printed pictures. Half of the stack was a blury, very grain pictures and the other half of it was clear.
    So my guess is that the export (as I read in another article) of photos puts also other images (is guess also the thumbnails) on the CD.
    Those images were intepereted by the photo shop and where printed accordingly. When I inserted the CD in my iPhoto it shows 317 photos, if I insert the CD into a Windows PC it shows roughly 700.
    Did anyonee experience the same problem? How can I export it so that I do not have the problem again.
    Is Apple aware of this???
    Any thoughts on that will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Gerd

    Did you burn the CD by using the Share->Burn Disc menu option? If so then you burned an iPhoto formatted disk that included all of the thumbnails, original files of those you've edited and the edited files, all jpg files. The photofinisher's software look for jpgs and printed every thing it found.
    To burn a CD of the photos you want to print, after selecting those images use the Share->Export->File Export menu option. In that window select full sized images. (It's best if you crop the images to the size you want printed beforehand so you don't leave the cropping to the automatic machine at the photofinisher.) Then export to a mounted blank CD and burn in the Finder.

  • I want to print photo's from my I3. They appear to be saved in photo cache but they wont open. Only way seems to be to e-mail to myself, any help?

    I can't print photos taken from my phone. After syncing they appear in a photo cache but wont open and the software from my printer can't do it either. Also tried searching and having Iphone plugged in whilst printing and the printer also can not find the phone to download.

    Photos taken with iphone are NOT part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

  • Can I print photos at different resolutions in one PS5 file?

    I am printing photos on fabric. I'd like compare one printed at 300dpi and the same photo at 150 dpi. I was going to set them  side by side on a piece of fabric and realized I had to specify the resolution of the file I'm placing them in. Can I have two files at different resolution in one file? If the new file is of 300dpi resolution how does this affect the image at 150dpi? Thanks!
    Mary

    Hello again,
    thanks so much for helping a newbie sort things out. I'm still confused. I  know that a higher resolution like 300dpi, has more dots per inch and has the potential to give me more detail in print than a lower dpi.
    If I crop a raw file as an 18" square-  I will make it either 150 or 300 dpi.  I'm trying to place two images ( the same images) side by side in a photoshop file to compare the results when they print- (I'm printing with an online vendor). Can I do that? that is, place a 150 dpi image next to a 300 dpi image in one PS file, identified ast  300dpi ? What are the print results? Will both images look the same, or will the 150 dpi be converted to 300 and I won't see any difference anyway?
    Or, do I need to set up two separate files-one at 150 and one at 300, and print them separately, to compare them?
    Can you help me understand this? Thanks!

  • Printing photos from iPhoto 9.5.1 on my printer yeilds garish two color prints. Exporting the photo from iPhoto to desktop then printing from Preview works fine. How can I get good prints from iPhoto?

    When printing photos in iPhoto 9.5.1 with my HP inkjet printer the multitude of colors in the photos are reduced to two, Magenta and Yellow. If the photos are exported to my desktop (MacPro) and printed from Preview, the colors in the prints are fine. How do I get iPhoto to print the colors correctly?

    Brad
    What settings did you use in the Export Dialogue?
    When you go File -> Export you get a tabbed box with various options. In the File Export tab you can choose to scale the pics, or keep them the same size, change or retain the format.

  • How do I print photos with mats or borders in 9.5.1

    I have been printing photos in iPhoto for years. I have just downloaded 9.5.1 and I cannot find the option for printed mats or colored borders. Also I cannot see where you would print two photos on one page. Seems so simple. What have I missed?

    You'll need a 3rd party app  as that feature has been removed from iPhoto 9.5.
    If you have Pages 09 or earlier  the photo can be added to a Pages page, resized to the print size and a frame added. 
    The newer Pages version, 5.1, has a very limited frame selection but does have some borders. 
    Additional frames can be added to Pages 09 with this free add-on: Frames and strokes installer for : iWork ’08, iWork ’09, iWeb ’08 et iWeb ’09

  • How to print Photo Info in the Custom Print Package

    I am  using LR CC, latest version on a Windows7 PC.
    I am trying to print Photo Info in the Custom Print package. I have no trouble selecting Photo Info in the Single Image/Contact Sheet Layout Style, but when I switch to the Custom Print Package, the Photo Info check box in the Page panel, disappears. I can't find any reference to this in the manual as to why this would occur, or not be available.
    Appreciate any help with this matter.
    Best Regards
    Steve

    Hi,
    Have a look at: Lightroom Help | Print module layouts and templates
    Only on the Single Image and Contact Sheet layouts can you " ... print information about photos, such as the filename, title, caption, and keywords ..."

  • I can no longer print photos from iPhoto.

    When I try to print photos from iPhoto, I get the error message:  There were no themes located. Until at least one theme has been installed, this feature will be unavailable. The solution offered by iPhoto help is ridiculous as it assumes that you can get past the error message and on to the option to choose a theme. No so.  The error message is the end of the road.  This is a new problem for me.  Apparently there was an automatic update and now I am updated to no longer being able to print my own photos. Apparently (according to traffic on Google) this is not a new issue, but I haven't seen a solution.  Can't deny that I am royally ****** off.

  • When printing photos at my hp 1514n the colors are odd + not suitable. using win7 64bit +lat. driver

    Hi, I' using a hp 1514n for printing photos. It's attached to my Win7 64bit computer. But the colors are not suitable. Printing is in high quality but the coloras are wrong (i.e. instead of a bule sky I get it  turquois).
    all patches installaed and also the lastest drivers. What else can I do?
    The files are ok, because I get the right colors when printign the files at another hp color laser jet with win7 (32 bit)
    Where can I get a suitable icc file?

    I'd use the GutenPrint drivers. They're usually better than the drivers that HP ships, anyway, and the latest version of GutenPrint will work with Leopard while the HP drivers for a printer that old will not. The drivers at <http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/hpijs> also explicitly support the DJ960C. Those drivers are usually written by HP employees, are often superior to the drivers HP uses, and, like the GutenPrint drivers, are free.

  • When printing photos, pictures are missing colors. ( example no blue sky, colors look washed out )

    When we print Photos the colors are not clear and the blue is missing in the sky, Pictures look yellow , also sometimes lines appear in Photos. I already ran the cartridge cleaning . 

    Please read this post then provide some details.  What printer model? What operating system? It appears you are low on cyan (and/or light cyan depending on your printer model and what cartridges are installed.)

  • HP Deskjet 1050 All-in-One Printer series - J410A not printing photos

    Hi,
    It's been months since I tried to fix the photo printing of my printer and until now it's still not fixed.
    My problem is that I can't print photos via windows photo viewer. When I hit print, it shows a printer icon on my task bar and it disappears. I am using Windows 7. 
    Also, if I check on Device Settings tab of my printer properties, the photo tray is missing. See screenshot:
    I tried printing using Paint and IE9 and it printed but my problem is that the photos are too dark.
    So I have two problems here:
    1) I cannnot print via windows photo gallery and my photo tray is missing.
    2) Printing to other applications like Paint and IE9 produces very dark photos.
    This happened after I updated my driver. I tried switching back to my old driver and it printed but the photos are too dark already. When the printer was still new using the old driver, I had no problems with my photos and they look all good. I updated my driver because the time came when I cannot see my ink levels with my old driver. I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers and the problems still persist.
    Please help!! I have wasted a lot of photo paper and ink by trial and error. T^T

    If you are having problems with printing photos, see if this document is of any assistance in finding the right settings:
    --Print Photos Saved On Your Computer--  
    I would like to add that I have never seen a photo tray option in the Device Settings of the Printer's Properties.  I checked all of mine and some had the duplex option here but no mention of a photo tray even if the printer had one.  But while you're in that section, you may want to change it from "Letter" to the photo size you are trying to print (4x6, 3x5 etc).
    One problem I had with your question regarding the photo tray, I didn't know this printer had a photo tray.  I will post a picture below of this printer and when you reply, let me know where exactly this photo tray is in case I am just not seeing it.
    When printing from IE9 or Paint, the images come out dark but what about an image in a Word document? Does that come out too dark as well?  Can you make a copy of a normal photo and it come out dark too?
    Answer those questions for me please and I will be happy to help.
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.

  • Printing Photos with AirPrint to Epson Px730Wd produces white edge

    All,
    I have just bought a new Epson PX730WD and have a small problem when printing photos via AirPrint.  I always get a 3mm white edge on the right hand side of my photos.  Printing the same photo from Epson iPrint app works fine and it works from my PC as well, but using AirPrint via the native photo app always produces this white edge. Very annoying as I prefer to use the native functions when available, but cannot be doing with this edge.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Chris

    I have contacted Epson Support and they told me to try the iPrint app which I did and it worked fine.  So the problem seems to lie somewhere between airprint and the printer recognising what is being sent via airprint.  I can't find an Epson forum where these type of issues are discussed.  I was hoping someone else may have an tried airprint with a PX730wd to see what results they get.
