Re: How to stop MS Paint changing resolution of files to 96 dpi?
The problem is - Even if Paint reads an original scan resolutions, it still
prints it as an image with 96 dpi resolution, not the original scan resolutions, with different than the original size.

Re: How to stop MS Paint changing resolution of files to 96 dpi?
What is an intuitively understandable program with MS Paint capabilities,
which prints with an original scan resolution?

Re: How to stop MS Paint changing resolution of files to 96 dpi?
If the "print size" is the issue, go into Page Setup and set the scale.
if it prints at 96 and the original was 300 dpi 300/96*100=312% Dmitry Kopnichev wrote: > The problem is - Even if Paint reads an original scan resolutions, it still > prints it as an image with 96 dpi resolution, not the original scan > resolutions, with different than the original size. > "Bob I" <birelan@yahoo.com> ???????/???????? ? ???????? ?????????: > news:%23Br4JnU5FHA.3496@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... > >>All tiff file formats are NOT the same.

Re: How to stop MS Paint changing resolution of files to 96 dpi?
I all you want is the MS Paint editing capabilities, then edit with MS Paint
and save the edited file. Then open the folder where you saved the file, click on it to select it (highlight file name in blue) and look at the menu on the left and click on Print this file. The XP print wizard will open, follow directions including the printer set up preferences, click on print and you are done.

I think that Paint prints with ABOUT 96 dpi. How to know the exact

Re: How to stop MS Paint changing resolution of files to 96 dpi?
The XP print wizard does not print with an original scan size or resolution.
It just fits an image or images to a page.

Re: How to stop MS Paint changing resolution of files to 96 dpi?
Well, it stands to reason that this number comes from somewhere! Most likely
the DPI of the screen, which on most screens is 96.

Re: How to stop MS Paint changing resolution of files to 96 dpi?
You may want to read this about scanning and then printing a specific size.
http://www.scantips.com/ I still think the fastest way to accomplish what you want is to edit with Paint, save the file and then open it with www.faststone.org then click on File and Print. A window will open, for size, select "Specified size" and enter it. If the original photo was say 15 x 10 centimeters, enter this. Then enter your printer preferences and select the highest resolution. Click Print. As long as the paper size in your printer is the same or larger than the Specified size, you will get the print at the size you want.

Re: How to stop MS Paint changing resolution of files to 96 dpi?
Dmitry, you definitely should not be using a primitive application like MS
Paint for photo editing/printing. Buy a proper photo-editing program and you will soon learn the relationship between pixels and image dimensions. A good photo-editing program allows you to specify EXACTLY what size you want the image to be and at the same time it tells you how many pixels-per-inch the image will have at that size. It also allows you to to 'crop' to get rid of any unwanted objects at the outer edges of the image. you can also 'save' the image in any format you like. MS Paint does not not allow you to do any of that because it's too simple for photo work. I'm amazed you are using it for scanning/printing photographs. No wonder you can't get the photo to print the size you want! use something better!
