I am trying to print multiple different 3" x 5" pictures on a single sheet of photo paper.  I can do it with my older computer which runs on XP but cannot see how to select different layouts in Windows 7 or print preview.  I can currently only print one 3" x 5" photo at a time and it wastes 4 sheets of paper.  Can someone help me please.

    Hi help-fully,

    You can still do the same in Windows 7.Windows Photo Viewer offers a list of templates that correspond to the most common print sizes, including 4 x 6, 8 x 10, and wallet-sized photos.

    Suppose you want to print four different 3" x 5" pictures on a single sheet of photo paper.

    Follow these steps to print all the four pictures in one page.

    1.    Select all the four pictures, right-click and select  Print.

    You should get the option “How do you want to print your pictures?”.

    2.    On the right-panel, there are various layouts available.

    Choose 3.5 * 5 in . (4).

    This fits all the four images in one page. You can choose other layouts available as per your requirement.

    3.    Also check with the various paper sizes available.

    That should be it.

    Here are answers to some common questions about printing pictures.

    This is from the link shinmila H issued, To print several pictures on a single page

    You can print several smaller pictures on a single page.

    1. Press and hold the Ctrl key, and then click the pictures you want to print.
    2. Right-click any of the selected pictures, and then click Print.
    3. In the Print Pictures dialog box, select the picture size and number of copies. You'll see a preview of your picture in the Print Pictures dialog box. Depending on the number of pictures you're printing, you might use more than one sheet of paper.
    4. When you're done, click Print.

    I found this question with answer but it only refers to printing the same photo on the same page.  Not different photos on the same page:

    You may use the below provided steps and check -

    1. You may just select all the pictures you want to print by using the keys CTRL+ Mouse click.

    2. Then click on print directly from the menu if it appears or go to file menu and click on print. A window will get open for printing the pictures.

    3. Here from the right pane you may select different size options like 4x6 in. (2) or any other size you want and print the pictures.

    Hi,

    I've followed these instructions and the print dialog still only gives me one photo instead of four.  This requires me to use 4 sheets of paper instead of one for 4 photos.

    I chose 3.5 x 5 inch, for 4 photos, yet still only one photo shows up in the box, without options to add more.  Could you let me know what I can do to make the photo print dialog act as it should as listed by Shinmila?

    Thanks,

    You can always copy and paste the pictures you want into a word processor like Word, then print from there.

     I hope this helps.  Good luck.
