Finally, choose a photo paper rather than plain paper. The reason why manufacturers produced and named them “photo” papers is because they’re definitely for this type of use. Photo papers come in either glossy or matte finish.

And take note of brand of photo paper. Particular printers choose to work only with photo paper of same brand. It’s not that manufacturers wanted to get even paper market to their side; it’s just that printers and papers are usually designed around each other.

For better results, just stick to same brand as that of your printer. Even with introduction of third party substrates, certain problems such as smearing and unnatural color balance will just show in end when you choose to use other brands.

You can print in sections

When paper fails, you can do printing in most conventional way- print in sections. This process can be time consuming and would need a little patience and perseverance. It is also often hard to align print sections and hide parts where they are joined. Problems also arise when cutting image into sections before printing.

But take heart, there are also programs available to help you. Panoramic image printing software like cPicture and PanoPrinter. The former allows you to automatically cut picture in sections, sizes of which you can print using cPicture or with another image tool.

The latter, on other hand, does adjustments, and most importantly, it allows you to print image across multiple pages. It even provides crop marks, page numbers, among others, to help you cut and join together sections to create whole image.

When all else fails, I believe that it’s just time for you to give up and avail of services of large format digital printing providers nearest you.
