Printing images

Before printing an image, you can specify printer properties, including paper size and device options. For example, you can specify printer features such as duplexing stapling. The preferences that you choose depend on several factors: the type of output device to be used, whether the printed output will be in color or in black and white, and whether you are printing separations. You can print Corel Painter images on a wide variety of printers, including PostScript, Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI), and QuickDraw, and high-resolution imagesetters.

You can manually adjust the page size, orientation, and margin settings to match the standard paper settings for printing. You can also print an image that is larger than a selected page size by automatically resizing the image to fit the page. For example, you can automatically resize a 12-by-12-inch image to fit on an 8.5-by-11-inch page.

You can also print an image to a file, so you can send the file to a print service provider for printing. Some of these options are available only on the Windows operating system.
