Lightroom printing and the Epson 2400

2008-10-25 Thread David J Brooks
I still have print problems in LR.

I printed out an 8x10 recently, set the dimensions to 8x10 and it printed fine.

I tried printing out a 5x7 of a friends dog from thanksgiving, set the
sizes in L;R and the Epson print window, but all it would do is print
about 3x5 on the 5x7 paper.

I'm doing something wrong obviosly

I'd need to know more ... precisely what operation you performed ...  
to say anything.


Normally, I print 5x7s two-up on an 8.5x11 sheet of paper and cut them  
afterwards. I find that simpler. But I have printed 5x7 and other  
sizes with no problems.

I didi the conversions etc in LR then went to the print module. The
canvas was set at 8x10 as from my previous print job, that went
well.
As i only wanted one 5x7 and used the Epson 5x7 paper, i set the guide
lines on the canvas to 5x7 and then when the Epson print box popped up
i set the paper to 5x7 there as well.

Then all it would do is print part of the picture, about 3x4, in the
LRH of the paper.

Is there a fit to page option i may have missed or center on sheet.??

I'm sure i missed something here.,

Like i mentioned the 8x10 printed out fine with the canvas guide set to 8x10.

The template used was the single sheet one. I could print the double
5x7 and do it that way, i suppose.

In LR, first use the Page Setup button to pick a printer and page size/ 
orientation. Then use the Printer Setup button to bring up the driver  
dialog and set up the printing specifics for the paper type and  
quality you want. Now set up the print formatting in LR... Layout,  
Overlays, Print Job.


Then print.

You changed the paper size so the printer put a same ratio print to paper size.
Leave the paper size as 8x10 and when you specify 5x7 it will print 5x7.
