# 1 YOU MUST SET YOUR PRINTER FOR THE PHOTO PAPER CLICK HERE FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO DO THIS. YOU CAN TRY A FEW DIFFERENT SETTING UNTIL YOU GET THE BEST RESULTS. MY EPSON, PRINTER SEEMS TO DO BEST SET FOR PHOTO QUALITY GLOSSY FILM, I AM USING HIGH GLOSS PAPER NOT FILM
CHECK TO SEE IF YOUR PAPER CHOICE TOOK EFFECT
WITH THE PICTURE YOU WANT TO PRINT ON THE SCREEN GO UP TO FILE CLICK PRINT. A GRAY BOX WILL OPEN ON THE SCREEN CLICK ON PROPERTIES, MAKE ANY NECESSARY CHANGES HERE
# 2 I JUST WENT THROUGH MY PICTURES AND PRINTED THE ONES THAT LOOKED GOOD. I DID NO PHOTO EDITING. I DID DO A BACK UP OF THE PICTURES ON A CD BEFORE DELETING FROM MY COMPUTER.
# 3 AFTER PRINTING PICTURES ( LET THEM DRY OVERNIGHT ) KEEP THEM SEPARATED DO NOT STACK THEM
# 4 RUN THEM BACK THROUGH THE PRINTER ADDING CAPTIONS.
I DID THE CAPTIONS WITH MICROSOFT WORKS, ANY WORD PROCESSING PROGRAM SHOULD WORK THOUGH. I TYPED 8, LINES STARTING AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE WITH A 14, PT. SIZE LETTER. DO THE SPELL CHECK , IT IS A MUST FOR ME! SPELL CHECK AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE CLICK ON ( ABC ) ON THE TOOL BAR.
THE WAY TO CENTER YOUR CAPTIONS AFTER YOU HAVE TYPED THEM.
GO TO THE TOP OF THE PAGE CLICK EDIT THEN CLICK ON SELECT ALL
WITH ALL YOUR CAPTIONS HIGHLIGHTED MOVE YOUR MOUSE POINTER TO THE TOP OF THE PAGE ( TOOL BAR ) AS YOU PASS SLOWLY OVER THE BUTTONS THEIR FUNCTION WILL BE DISPLAYED CLICK ON THE ONE LABELED CENTER. YOUR WORK SHOULD BE CENTERED NOW,
YOU CAN ALSO CHANGE THE SIZE OF YOUR LETTERS
GO TO THE TOP OF THE PAGE CLICK EDIT THEN CLICK ON SELECT ALL WITH ALL YOUR LETTERS HIGHLIGHTED CLICK ON THE LITTLE BOX ON YOUR TOOL BAR THAT HAS 3( 12pt ) USING THE DROP DOWN BOX CLICK THE DIFFERENT NUMBERS UNTIL YOU FIND ONE YOU LIKE.
TO CHANGE THE COLOR (S) OF YOUR TEXT LIKE I DID IN EBAY HIGHLIGHT TEXT, WITH POINTER OVER HIGHLIGHTED TEXT RIGHT CLICK, THEN CLICK FONT USE DROP DOWN MENU CLICK ON THE COLOR, YOU CAN DO ONE LETTER AT A TIME FOR THE DIFFERENT COLOR'S
THE TEXT MUST BE HIGHLIGHTED FOR THIS TO WORK
THEN ON THE 4TH, LINE PLACE YOUR PROMPT, USING YOUR ENTER KEY SLOWLY MOVE WHAT YOU HAVE TYPED ON THE 4TH LINE DOWN UNTIL YOU SEE IT GO TO PAGE 2, ON THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER OF YOUR SCREEN AREA, THEN BACK SPACE I TIME, THE PAGE NUMBER SHOULD BE BACK AT PAGE 1, YOU ARE NOW READY TO PRINT.

TECH TIP: DO A FEW TEST PAGES ON PLAIN PAPER BEFORE DOING YOUR PICTURES.
THIS WAS NOT HARD TO DO
YOU CAN E-MAIL ME FOR HELP IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM. HELP@RLG.COM ALSO IF YOU MADE AN INK PURCHASE JUST CALL THE TOLL FREE 800 NUMBER ON YOUR INVOICE. I WILL TRY TO WALK YOU THROUGH THIS OVER THE TELEPHONE. PLEASE HAVE YOUR COMPUTER TURNED ON AND READY!
REMEMBER YOU ARE PRINTING WITH AN INKJET PRINTER YOU WILL NOT GET THE QUALITY OF PHOTO PROCESSING, YOU SHOULD GET REAL CLOSE THOUGH
WALGREEN'S WANTED $6.99 PER PICTURE TO PROCESS MY DIGITAL PHOTOS
I RECOMMEND THE CANON PRINTER THAT USES BCI-3E OR BCI-6 CARTRIDGES.
I ALSO SELL THAT CARTRIDGE!
