Pixma 5300 print problem

Tifa — Mon, 18 Nov 2013 11:25:26 GMT

Hi everyone, just joined, hope ive posted in the right place !

Ive been searching for days to get some info in how i can print two 4x6 photos on an A4 sheet.

Ive not long bought my Pixma printer, and im really happy with it apart from the "layout " options. I cant find anything on customising what size i can print ? For example, ive had to print ( wasting ink ) 5x7 instead of 4x6 ( two on one page ) because i cant find any other option to do two 4x6 on one page ( A4 )

Im a photographer, which i why i chose this printer, but im really struggling with this problem.

Has anyone elese had this problem ?

Thank you for any help

I have never heard of or even seen a Pixma 5300? But all my printers will do what you want. It is a simple selection using Light Room 5.

Thank you for your reply. Sorry for the confusion. My printer is the Pixma 5350. A little confusing but in the printer and divices on pc it says 5300 ! I dont have lightroom as its too expensive for me. At moment due to selling old pc, i only have ps7. I did have Elements 11 😞

I cant find anywhere an option to print the sizes i need?

OK, then in your case I advise you to stay with and use Easy Photo Print EX. It will make your job way more easy. Plus it is free.

If you are 'seriously' becoming a photographer, seriously consider saving up for Light Room 5.
