How do I print a photo so it fits a 2x3 inch frame

[imitation700mb]

My friend has Emailed me a photo of her dog and she asked me if I could make it print so it fits in a 2x3 inch photo frame. She can't make it work for her. Any suggestions? Thanks.

If the print size is available in the software, the easier option is to download, save, install, and use HP Photo Creations 

Look for a Custom Size setting.

If for any reason that is not an option, you can perhaps calculate the size and print the photo with Paint.

Download and save the photo on your computer.

• Open File Explorer > navigate to the folder in which the photo / image is stored
• Right-Click on Photo file > Properties > Details > Note pixels counts (width and height)
• Use Aspect Ratio Calculator to ensure the shape of the photo will fit on the shape and size of the paper you wish to use for the print

• Use the com 3-way Percent Calculator to calculate the percentage of the larger side (width or height) to obtain the percentage of 100 % when printed on your selected paper and at your desired size
• Print the file using Paint at the calculated percentage of 100%

Hi Imitation.

To print a 2x3 in HP Photo Creations, just set the image size to 4x6 and the image scaling to 50%. You can choose whatever paper size you want. The preview shows the final dimensions.

Hope this helps,
