The way I understand your question is your want print the SAME picture 4
times on a sheet of paper 8.5 x 11 in.

If you want 4 pictures on 8.5 x 11 in paper, the size of each picture needs
to be 3.5 x 5 in.

Now, how to you get them there using the XP print wizard. You make 3 more
copies of your picture.
Open the folder and right click on the picture you want. Click on Copy on
the opening menu. Then click on Edit on the top bar and click on Paste. This
will add a copy of the picture in your folder.
Suppose your picture has the following name:
image.jpg
When you Paste, the following file will be added:
Copy of image.jpg
Then, you right click on Copy of image.jpg and click on Copy and then click
on Edit and Paste.
You will now have the following in your folder:
image.jpg
Copy of image.jpg
Copy of Copy of image.jpg.
You right click on Copy of Copy of image.jpg and you click on Copy, then
click on Edit and Paste. You will now have the following in your folder:
image.jpg
Copy of image.jpg
Copy of Copy of image.jpg
Copy of Copy of Copy of image.jpg
You now have your four files, of the same image in your folder.
You select these four files (highlight in blue the names of the files) and
look at the menu on the left of the list of files and click on Print the
selected pictures.
The printing wizard will start. When you get to the Layout selection, scroll
down and select 3.5 x 5.
You should now get a printed page with the same photo printed 4 times at 3.5
x 5.

==================================
You *do not* have to resize an image just
to print 4 to a page.

Open your image in Windows Explorer
and right click it...from the menu...choose
....Print...

This will open your Photo Printing Wizard.

Choose...Next / Next...

If you are using Photo Paper...open the...
Printing Preferences drop window and
choose...Photo Paper...

Next...

Scroll down and select: Wallet Prints...

Number of times to use each picture?
Enter...4....wait for the images to appear
on the template.

Click...Next...to begin printing.

TIP: If important portions of your images
are clipped due to the auto-cropping
feature...you'll have to pre-crop the images
to the correct aspect ratio in an image
editing program.

The following free program has a good
crop tool:

FastStone Image Viewer

Hi Yves,

Haven't seen you lately...

You don't need more copies, the printing
wizard will generate the necessary copies
when you enter the number.

Thanks for the replies; however, I failed to include a factor. I want each
picture to fit a small picture frame. Can I change the print size of each
picture to 2.5 x 3.5 and then have multiple prints on one sheet of photo
paper? Can this be done?
Wallet size are too small.

The pics are Christmas gifts for my sisters.

Thanks a lot for helping me out!

=================================
For the size you require you would need
a template that is not available in the
Photo Printing Wizard. However...if
you stitch two together...you could print
4 3.5 x 5s and cut them in half.

The freeware IrfanView can stitch two
or more images into one.

Download IrfanView 3.97
http://www.tucows.com/preview/194967.html
(get the plug-ins too)

How many different images are included
in this project? Possibly you could e-mail
them to me and I'll be happy to crop them
to the correct size and join them so you can
print 4 3.5 x 5s and yield 8 pictures.

My address is:
pianopartsAThotmailDOTcom
(change the obvious)
