Not Printing with Photo Printing Wizard

[Tom P]

I reluctantly use Microsoft Office Picture Viewer to do some minor image
viewing and editing. When I print images though I do not want to use the
Photo Printing Wizard as it sometimes changes the size of the image. Is
there a way to de-slect this feature?

Yes, don't try printing from Windows Picture and Fax Viewer OR Microsoft
Office Picture Manager. Use some other image handling application to
open the picture. MS Paint or a third party app like Irfanview.

There is no such thing as "Microsoft Office Picture Viewer". You might
have Microsoft Office Picture Manager (which is included with Microsoft
Office 2003 and 2007), or you might have Microsoft Windows Picture and
Fax Viewer (which is included with Windows XP). The Photo Printing
Wizard is a component of Windows XP, not of Microsoft Office (which is
what this newsgroup supports).

Yes, you are correct. The program is Microsoft Office Picture Manager; I
apoligize for the error. This was part of a recent update to Office 2007.
When upgrading I never realized that I would loose the XP provided Microsoft
Photo Editor which had been working quite well for me. I was wondering if
there is a way to get the program (Microsoft Office Picture Manager) to print
without using the "Photo Printing Wizard". While print utility is nice if
printing a photograph, most of what I do involves logo design and need to
print them at the actual screen size. This utility only seems to give the
options to print picture sizes.

You cannot print from Office Picture Manager without going through the
Photo Printing Wizard.

If you still have your Office XP CD, then you can reinstall the
Microsoft Photo Editor feature from that, and then use Photo Editor to
edit and print your images like you used to do. Or you can open and
print your edited images from Windows Paint (which does not print
through the Photo Printing Wizard). Or you can insert your edited
images into Word or Powerpoint and print from there. Or you can use a
third-party image editing program to edit and print your images.
