#3 Prepare your Photos for Printing: You need to take into consideration that what you see on your screen is not necessarily what is going to print out.

Two things to consider when printing:
• Laser Printers: Most desktop laser printers have a resolution of 600 dpi, for imagesetters the resolution is 1200 dpi or higher. In order to determine the appropriate resolution of your image when ready to print in any laser printer, check your “screen frequency” and you can find that in your printer documentation or consult your service provider.

• Ink jet Printers: The printing method is different, however most ink jet printers have approximately a resolution of 300 to 600 dpi and are quite good printing images of up to 150 ppi.

#4 What do you do with the Printed Photos? So you have great printed pictures of Harry Potter but now what? You can use them in several ways, Inkjetsuperstore.com suggest:
