Printing Options

[annalucky]

I'm not sure if it goes here or technology..but the mods can always decide on that.

When I make graphics on PSP7, I was wondering if there's any special settings you need to put on your printer or on the computer to make it print out EXACTLY as it looks on the computer. When I tried it, the pixel fonts and some of the brushes I used in the picture came out weird. So I'm wondering if they are any settings that you could change to make it come out exactly as it appears on the computer.

This is more of a Technology issue.
When you print, I find that the image is a little zoomed and for ink printers they go in lines again and again.

I think there are printing options you can choose from. The quality of the picture you want to print out. And also, you might want to try using photo paper instead of the regular old paper. It might turn out better. I'm not exactly sure though, but last time I had to print out something from photoshop, I found the photo paper to be much better.

The type of paper might effect it too?

Oh yea, and what is your resolution in DPI in PSP7? Or wait, does it have that option?

IDK, because if the picture itself has say, a dots per inch of like, 96, you might see the pixels. I know in photoshop, I printed an image with dots per inch of 300 and it looked clearer. I don't know if it's the same for you. Also, I noticed that when I made it print "fine" rather than "fast" or "normal", it didn't print pixelated. Also, I have a printed picture of my boyfriend and wow is THAT CLEAR. :P And it was a picture taken with a 2meg camera lol.

Although it won't look exactly the same as it does on the computer--I wish it did! Haha. :P
