I have an Envy 6400e, I’d like to know how to print small pictures for custom frames?

[GFC57]

I’d like to be able to print small for custom picture frames, 2.5” x 3.5”, 3” x 3”, and 3.5” x 3.5” prints, however it doesn’t appear they are options in a drop down list? I have 4”x 6” photo paper which I’ve used with previous HP printers for such scaled prints, however, it doesn’t appear custom prints are an option?

Thoughts/feedback?

Welcome to the HP Community --

Update / Edit - Add Example - Windows Irfanview Custom Print Size

The printer is not aware of what it is printing.

Beyond any hardware requirements (for example, margins, whether or not the printer supports borderless), what you can print is controlled by the applications or software supported in the Operating System / version.

For example,

Windows -- having installed the full driver printer software -- provides the foundation to install and use photo print and editing programs.  These can generally print a picture in any size that will fit on your paper.

Example - Windows - Irfanview (free editing / photo print software) -  Custom Print Size

Irfanview_Custom_Print_Size_3

================================================

Windows and the HP Smart app can print selected "Photo Size" prints on your paper. 

The number of sizes is severely limited.

Example - HP Smart - Windows - Simple Photo Print

HP_Smart_Win_Print_Photo_A4_All_5

======================================

iOS, iPadOS and using the HP Smart application is limited to the fewer options available in that app.

For example,

• HP Smart > iOS:  The size of the photo tends to follow the size of the paper.
• HP Smart > PadOS:  There is a manual resize option but it is limited to a single image and the sizing is manual (not accurate).

HP_Smart_Mobile_Image_Print_Resize-Move_6

There might be "an app for that" in the iOS / Apple store -- worth a look, I guess.
