I searched through my Android phone apps and with my desktop and found that it said only for iphone or ipad users. Thank you for a great tutorial! As I told Jayma, it is great to have a full how-to for sizing photos. :-)

Thank you so much for this useful video. In 2005 I had an Epson printer I adored that I used to print photos for a military scrapbook I started work on while my husband was deployed to Iraq at the time, sending me photos digitally from where he was. It had the capacity to make photos from negatives and slides as well. When it quit working, I was so sad and I've never had a printer again that did such a good job. I've wanted an Epson again(still have a lot of the Epson paper) but didn't know which one to get. I appreciate your input in this decision and also am intrigued by the app you use--sounds like it is great for me, who is not very tech-savvy.

Erin, thank you for this video…I refer to it often. I recently tested printing 2 different 4x6 photos that were screenshots. I printed both on Epson Premium Glossy paper. The difference was one set of the 2 I used the Epson iPrint app and the 2nd set of the same photos I used the Print to Size App that you recommended in this video. What a difference! The set printed with the Print to Size app was sharper, clearer and was so much less blurry that I could read most of the info on the side of the fire engine in the background! I used my Epson PM 400 for both. I especially like it for heritage photos that may not be up to today’s photo capabilities. THANK YOU!

When my mother passed away, I inherited all of her photos (a lot!). So, instead of just storing them, I took one of those CM containers & sorted them into types of photos like snow, horses, family groups, grandparents, siblings, etc. Now every year my brother gets a photo album for Christmas using some of those old photos. Each album has a theme. Last Christmas it was family reunions. I also make a "life" album for each of his kids when they graduated from college using the old photos. (My mother took tons of photos of the grandkids.) Just thought I would share what you could do with those photos you have stored if you are like me being the only scrapbooker in the family.

Thank you for your informative video. You were very clear and zoomed in when needed. I did have to pause and re-run some parts (but that's on me). I also watched the one by Jayma Maime and another by a Katy (recommended by Jayma). All three of you use DIFFERENT photo apps for resizing and printing your photos from home. Print to size (you), PicFrame (Jayma) and Pic Monkey (Katy). They ALL seem great, and I know you are probably going to say, "it's just personal preference". I agree. But for someone completely NEW to this whole "print from home" scenario, is there some type of comparison chart to help me DECIDE?? I am pretty tech savvy (for a SENIOR CITIZEN) but NOT for the average "grew up with a smart phone in my hand" generation. So, I am looking for advice. I have an Android phone. Is there one of those apps that works better on an Android? Thank you for any guidance/recommendations you can give me.

Is there a reason why you use Print to Size app rather than the Epson Creative Print app? I love the Print to Size app but when it looks like the borders are correct, it prints with a narrower border on one side. I have done a lot of trial and error to try to figure out the correct sizes to use to have it work. Do you have standard inches that you use for 4x6 and for 3x4s on a 4x6 ? Thank you…your videos are always very helpful..

Honestly I have not tried the epson app because I was already using Print to size and loved it. When I first started using Print to size it had a dotted border around the outside that yielded perfect white borders every time. One day it disappeared and when I contacted the app developer they did not have an explanation. I use the app so often I can eyeball where it will print but I too occasionally will get uneven white borders and have to take a slice off one side to even them out. For my 4x6 photos I size them to 3.7 x 5.7, my 3x4's are 2.7 x 3.7 and so on. A little tip, when I print my first photo for a project and am happy with the border I leave it on the app and put the other photos on top in the same footprint so the borders will be consistent for that set of photos. Hopefully that is making sense. It only prints the visible photo you see so what's underneath is a placeholder.

Hi Erin - I found your wonderful video through Kelly Baxter Fitzgerald , my CTMH rep. You did a great job. However, even though I did exactly what I saw you do, (I put two 3x4s on one 4x6 paper), my pics turned out very grainy. Do you have any idea what I may have done wrong? Thank you!

Hello, Kelly is such a talented Maker, I love her artwork! I am sorry your photos turned out grainy. There can be many factors contributing to photo quality. What printer and paper are you using? I’m assuming the Epson picture mate but want to be sure. Additionally if the photos were texted to you or if you saved them from a platform like Facebook the quality will not be as good.

Erin, thank you so much for doing this video! I have a question?? I bought my printer five or six months ago and I bought extra ink and photo paper! Will my ink be OK if I haven’t used it yet? My printer, ink and photo paper side of a cabinet that has a door on it. I need to spend some time organizing my photos!! I keep on procrastinating, I know I need to get with the program! Lol thanks so much again I think your channel is absolutely awesome! PS I also went on that app and it says they’re charging $2.99 for the app, I’m assuming that’s each month?🤔
@CraftyConceptswithErin

Hello Elizabeth, I do not have a monthly charge for the app so it is a one time purchase. Your ink will be okay unopened in the package but the ink in your printer will eventually dry out. Storing it in a cabinet should help and I have read covering the whole printer with a plastic bag can help also. I can't say how long that will take because I print regularly. I know it can be hard to make time for scrapbooking especially organizing photos.

Thanks, Erin. I do have a question... I save a lot of my photos to my computer. I'm assuming I can print from my computer to the printer just fine. I'm wondering if the printer alone (without an app) also offers features for printing directly from my computer. I really like the features you showed us on the app. I had to laugh.. I have the very same Creative Memory archive boxes (not just one) - full of pictures!!
@CraftyConceptswithErin

Lol, I’m sure there are lots of us that have those same creative memories boxes stacked up. You can definitely print directly from your computer. On the printer itself you can set it for 3 1/2 x 5, 4 x 6 or 5 x 7. I know there are lots of different photo software options out there so I think it might depend on what you are using. My friend Katy uses Pic Monkey on her computer to get the odd sized photos. All the photos that are on my computer are also on my phone so I typically just print directly from the phone. I do have an ancient desktop that still uses iPhoto. I print directly to the Epson which will print out whatever size I tell it as long as it’s less than a 5 x 7. Hopefully that makes sense.

Luckily for me my in laws live next door and allow me to connect to their internet when printing so I didn't have to deal with the Starlink issue.

@CraftyConceptswithErin

Hello Angela, I print photos at the very least twice a week. The streaking does indicate ink dying and the nozzles need to be cleaned which does waste ink. I don’t know if there is any validity to this idea but maybe tightly wrap your printer in a plastic bag when not in use. It might slow the drying out process. Keep it away from windows with direct sunlight where it might get hot too. Have you watched my ten ways to add journaling video?

Hello Lisa, that is an excellent question. I do have a video I will link you may find helpful. I always begin with how many photos I have to tell the story. From there I will decide if it is a single or double page layout. Generally if I have three or less it will be a single page. Then I decide which photo is the most important, I tend to print it larger. 4x6 pics take up a lot of room so I prefer 3.5 x 5 for single page layouts. I then typically print the accompanying photos smaller at 3x4 or 3x3. It helps to have an inspiration layout or layout design in mind before you print your pics. kzitem.info/news/bejne/zauNx6qXfnh0Y5g
