I’m using an Epson 1280 – but I suspect this applies to any printer: Let’s say I have a photo (200DPI) that I have cropped to 4"x6". I want to print one copy. IfI use a sheet of 8 1/2"x11" paper, it will print in the missle of the sheet – thus wasting the rest of the sheet. So I create a blank canvas at 200DPI and 8 1/2"X11" – then drag my 4×6 over to it and place it so that I have paper left over to print something else – OR I might arrange to print two of this same 4×6 on the same sheet. I use the Ruler function and all looks well. However, the finished 4×6 or two 4×6’s are approximately 8% smaller after printing. Can someone tell me what’s happening? Also, perhaps there is a better way to make the most use of a sheet of paper and still get the dimensions of the prints that I want as a result. I suspect that I’m going about this wrong. I’m also assuming that a 4×6 at 200 DPI should fit on a 8 1/2×11 (200DPI) without shrinking or changing dimension in any way. Please help.
