VISTA64 and Epson Stylus NX515 printer

I have tried and tried ( and wasted hours and a lot of good photography
paper) to print on this above Epson four 3.5x5.0 photos on 1 sheet.

I have tried it from Paint, Paintnet, Windows Gallery and always get 1 full
sheet.

On a previous Epson and Windows XP I never had this problem. I also have a
HP Office jet 935 and that gives me 4 on 1 sheet also with VISTA 64. What's
wrong with this newest EPSON?

TechnicaL support at Epson at 1st and 2nd level are clueless and totally
incompetent. They do not even know whether it can be done!!!!!

Re: VISTA64 and Epson Stylus NX515 printer

I suspect that the printer driver is seeing that one of your 4 images is
sized for the entire sheet of paper.
I do not believe the applets you list allow you to resize the overall image
correctly but I would pursue that direction.
If you are unable to obtain a commercial image processing program which
allows for what you want to do you may want to try the Windows version of
Gimp.

Re: VISTA64 and Epson Stylus NX515 printer

I downloaded GIMP and installed fine under VISTA ^$. I opened it and did a
lot of looking, but CANNOT find where one selects the print size, like 4x6,
3.5x5, etc.
Can you didrect me and I will try.

Thanks

Check to see if GIMP has print options. The program I use gives me tons of
options when I click the print button.
