Microsoft Windows 11

I remember in the past when printing photos you would have a variety of layouts on 1 page like 2 5x7, wallets ect...  I have spent hours trying to figure out where the several layout options are at, they use to be on the right side of the print screen. I have a Tango photo printer and also a HP Office Jet Pro 8740. I have a Surface Studio 2 running Windows 11 Pro.  Everything I am reading for wallet pictures from the community is dated back several years. 

 

I do not want to select the photo several times to make it work. The layouts were so much easier. 

 

Thanks for any help

You might be referring to either Windows Photo Viewer or HP Photo Creations.

HP Photo Creations was retired in 2019.

I have not tried to find / load / run Windows Photo Viewer in Windows 11 - might still be there...

 

What to do?

 

If you have a pile of different photo files that you want printed on one sheet of paper, this can be done using HP Smart Windows and selecting the print multiple photos.  The photo print sizes are limited (no "wallet" size).  Ask if you want to see an example.

 

If you are interested and willing to do so,

Use a print editing software that can create an array of photos on one sheet of paper and then print that setup...

 

Example

 Irfanview can be used to arrange your photo in a Tile format at the selected size and number of rows / columns.

Once arranged, the Tiles can be printed.

 

Once done a couple of times, the Tile process is easier to use.

The options do provide a fine level of control over the output and results.

 

Examples - Irfanview Tile View Print - Part 1 and Irfanview Tile View Print - Part 2

 

Part 1

Irfanview_Tiled_View_Print_3 - Part 1Irfanview_Tiled_View_Print_3 - Part 1

 

Part 2

Irfanview_Tiled_View_Print_3A - Part 2Irfanview_Tiled_View_Print_3A - Part 2
