instead of the 4*6 standard on the pack it says 4*6 photo* with the
astrix meaningactual paper size 4*6.5 it seems a paint
anywho thanks

I don't know much about the Canon i350 but I can make a few general
observations.

You didn't indicate what photo program you are using to print. That can
sometimes make a difference in quality. Also, if the photos have been
compressed or were never very good quality, the printer can't do anything to
improve them. When you save a photo (usually as jpeg format) choose the
highest quality which will result in a larger file but better print.

A Photo that looks fine on your screen might be 0.5 megapixel or less but to
get a clear 4x6 print you need at least 2 megapixels.

Last observation: You are talking about a $50 (approx) printer. Don't
expect it to match the performance of a printer selling for 5-10 times that
much.

hi yes i do understand that a cheap printer wont give as high quiality
print

although i forogt to mention my photos are at a res of 3-4mega pixels
so there should not be to much a problem there

and i use the canon software that came with the printer or ocasionally
the kodak software
