Printing Photos - Windows 7

Chorlie

Hi,

My Dad is having a few problems printing photos with his new Windows 7 PC.

On his old XP PC, he could print 3 6x4 photos on 1 A4 sheet of photo paper, but he can't seem to do this with his Windows 7 PC. He can print 2 or 4 (smaller than 6x4) prints on the A4 sheet, but if he does 4 the prints are to small for his album and just to print 2 is wasting paper.

How can he print 3 (6x4) prints again, he is just usings the standard photo viewer which comes with Windows 7 as he did with his XP PC.

Thanks

I was hoping there is a way of doing it without having to a different program, he isn't very good with PC's and it took him long enough to learn how to do it on the XP machine.

To get 3 truly 6x4 images on an A4 sheet, you need to orientate 2 landscape and 1 portrait; neither Picasa nor the Win7 Photo printing software will do this.

You'll need a third party package - maybe something like ACD Fotoslate which will allow you to create a template - I'm afraid that's not free, though.

That's just what he's trying to do, with his XP PC he could print two photos one way and a third across the bottom of the paper. All he did was select the 3 photos and 6x4, then it printed that way; but this wonderful Windows 7 won't do that, or I can't find how to.
