SYMPTOMS
When you try to print from Microsoft Picture It! Photo to 4x6 paper in your printer, the picture is not printed in 4x6 on the paper, but instead a portion of an 8.5x11 picture is printed on the 4x6 paper. The photo is not scaled down from 8.5x11 to 4x6 to fit the paper.



CAUSE
This problem may occur if you have not set the print size to 4x6 in Picture It! Photo, and you have not set the paper size to 4x6 on your printer.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, set the print size to 4x6 in Picture It! Photo and the paper size to 4x6 on your printer. To do this, follow these steps:
 * 1) Start Picture It! Photo, and then open the photo that you want to print.
 * 2) In the left pane, under Project Options, click Print, point to Print on my printer, and then click Standard paper.
 * 3) In the left pane, in the Select a printer list, click the printer that you want to sent the picture to.
 * 4) Click Change printer settings.
 * 5) In the   Properties dialog box, change the paper size setting to the size of paper that you want to use.

This step may vary depending upon the brand and model of printer device that you are using. For directions about how to change the paper size for your printer, see the printer manufacturer's directions for your model of printer.
 * 1) After you change the paper size in the   Properties dialog box, click OK.
 * 2) In the Number of copies list, click the number of copies that you want to make.
 * 3) Under Click an orientation, click the orientation that you want to use.
 * 4) In the Select print size list, click 4x6, and then click Print.

Note If you want to print a picture from Picture It! Photo on different paper in the future, you must repeat these steps to change the paper size to the size that you want to use.
