   I use Irfanview to print images.   
      
   I bought a Digital Camera Eleven Years ago.   
   Here's what happened the first time I printed a photo from the   
   SD Card my camera uses.   
      
   I put a 4" X 6" sheet of Glossy Photo Paper in the Ink Jet Printer   
   and was disappointed at the results because I had placed it in the   
   Paper Tray like this:   
               ________   
              |        |   
              |________|   
      
      
   I didn't know that the printer expected the paper to be put in   
   like this:   
              ____   
             |    |   
             |    |   
             |    |     so the whole image would get put on the paper.   
             |____|   
      
      
   Only about [4"] of the photo got printed on that piece of EXPENSIVE   
   GLOSSY Photo Paper.   
      
   Another Learning Experience about using a Computer.   
      
   To Me, putting the paper in the Paper Tray as I had first done   
   would have shortened the time the print job took - because the   
   print head would move 6 inches across the paper, and the platen   
   wouldn't advance the paper as many time.   
      
   DUH!, what was I thinking.   
   "I WAS" using a Printer attached to a COMPUTER wasn't I?   
   Computers do what THEY want to do not as the Operator desired. DUH!   
      
   Today, after printing a 4 X 6 image an idea came to Ed's Head [TM].   
   After pressing CTRL P, on the Print Preview window I selected   
   Landscape, Best fit to page (aspect ratio) and set the Units to   
   inches  and then clicked the Printer setup [Button].   
      
   In the Print Setup window I selected '4 x 6 in' and clicked the   
   Properties [Button] and selected - Photo Paper Glossy, and clicked   
   the Check Box for Print Preview.   
      
   After clicking [OK] buttons twice, the Print Preview window   
   showed 'Resulting image size on paper' was: 5.02 x 3.77 inches .   
      
   I clicked the [Printer setup] Button and changed the '4 x 6 in'    
   setting to 'Letter (8 1/2 x 11 in)' then clicked [OK] .   
      
   The Print Preview window now showed the changed paper size setting   
   so I clicked the Portrait selection.   
   Next I clicked the Custom selection under 'Print size' and entered   
   the Height as 3.77 and made sure the Aspect ratio Box was checked.   
      
   After I clicked the [Print] Button the Preview window showed the   
   image would print just I had always wanted the Printer to do.   
      
   Just Bragging, He He He.   
   Hope MY B-I-G Idea is of help to Somebody else.
