Erin, I'm going to deviate from complimenting you on your wonderful crafting and photo organizing tips to the technical quality of your videos. I appreciate the clearness and volume of your voice in your videos. There is no 'straining' to hear or fluctuation in volume. And you zoom in on tips that we can easily see. Thank you for being such a professional!!!
Wow Coelle, thank you for your kind words.
I have the same printer and the Epson PM 220 also. Love them both!
Thanks for the tips!!!
Thank you for this information!!!
You are so welcome! I apologize for the incorrect information for androids, the app is iPhone only.
Thank you, thank you, so very helpful. â€
You are most welcome, I am so glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this video! â€
You are so welcome!
Great video filled with informative tips I needed. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Oh good, I'm glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the app suggestion! This is EXACTLY what I needed.
You are very welcome and I am so glad this was helpful for you.
Great video, Erin! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you and you are so welcome!
So very helpful! Thank you
I am glad to hear it was helpful. You are very welcome!
Thanks so much for your detailed explanation.
You are welcome, I hope it was helpful đ
Excellent!! Thank you for very helpful info. đ
You are very welcome!
Thanks for sharing this. You explanation was very easy to follow.
Thank you for watching!
Thank you so very informative.
You are very welcome. I am glad it was helpful!
This was SO what I needed. I have the printer but always struggle with the sizes. I wish someone would sell those photo placeholders in a pack! Guess Iâll just learn to make them as I find these so helpful if you just want to play and dint have photos yet.
So very helpful & thank you for taking the time to share all your tips! I canât wait for the weekend so I can experiment!đđđ»
You are very welcome!
Erin, thanks so much for sharing this!! Wonderful info, tips and tricks! Iâve learned a ton of new things just from watching today. Thanks for the app tip as well. I played with it for about two minutes and can already tell I will be using this a ton. The best tip for me was the adding pictures to albums ON MY PHONE!! Duh Kim! Why do you not do this đ€Łđ€Ł Thanks for another great video â€ïž
Hi Kim, Iâm so glad you found the video helpful. Yes albums are a game changer when it comes to organizing and finding your photos. It took me a bit to realize this as well lol
Thank you as you are very educational .
You are very welcome!
I just asked for this for Christmas! đ
Ooooh, I hope Santa brings you a printer!
Hi Erin, I hopped over here from Jayma's channel and this was super helpful! I just downloaded the app you use and now am going to order this marvelous printer, I am so excited! I've gotten very far behind (4 yrs to be exact) which used to never happen but I am determined to get everything into albums for generations to enjoy. Thanks for all the tips ~
Gale The Happy Stamper :)
Hello, I am so glad you found the video helpful and I hope the app works out well for you. The printer is awesome and you are going to love it. I know what itâs like to be behind in my scrapbooking. I donât know if I will ever be caught up but Iâm going to have fun trying.
Great tips!!!! I love the print to size app!!!
Thank you, me too, its so easy to use!
This video was very helpful. Iâve always wanted to print photos from home. I can see how the app is simple to use. I just taught myself how to make albums because my pictures were everywhere. Those albums help a lot! Thank you so much for sharing Erin! đđ
Iâm so glad it was helpful for you. I agree the albums are a game changer. I was wasting a lot of time searching for photos before organizing them into albums.
I also have this Epson printer and love it but didn't know about Print to Size. Thank you so much for sharing this information. I already know I'm going to love using this app.
Hello Lesley, it is a great little printer and I hope you love the app as much as I do!
You are an excellent teacher! I have learned so much from your videos and love the classes, easy to understand, many tips and ideas and just a pleasure to watch. Thank you
Thank you, you are so kind! Iâm glad you are learning new things to try.
Hi Erin, I don't scrapbook much any more but I love watching you and I got an Epson 400 Printer for my birthday from my husband. I try to keep my Christmas albums up to date. I have only printed out 4 x 6 pictures but they have all come out great. Now with these instructions I will be able to print smaller pictures. Thank you so much.
Hello Dorothy, keeping up with Christmas albums is wonderful. Itâs such a magical time of the year with so many photos and memories. That is very nice your husband got you this photo printer for your birthday. 4 x 6 photos are great but the smaller sizes are fun too!
What a great and informative video! I like how you ran us through all of the steps, including using the app to resize and print the pictures. Definitely shows how useful that app is!
Thank you, I'm so glad it was helpful! This app is super easy to use and I love it.
Thank you Erin for sharing this videoâŠI believe I have learned the most from this video. I too have a box of pictures I most likely will not be scrapbooking because they are to large or the orientation is not going to work. I love how you showed your placement of pictures on your card stock too to see just how you wanted to do your layout. Iâve learned SO MUCH from this videoâŠthank you so much!
Thank you Joyce, I am so glad this video was helpful to you. Itâs funny because I never look at those boxed photos but I could never part with them.
Great video Erin, more for me to consider before I make a decision to purchase a photo printer.
Hi Denise, I am so glad you enjoyed the video. Buying a new printer can be a tough decision, I do highly recommend Epson and then Canon.
I just got my, thanks for thr info.
Oh that is exciting, I hope you love it as much as I do.
I purchased this printer a few years ago and love it! Thanks for the info on the app.
You are very welcome! It is a great little printer isnât it?
Thanks for this video.
You are very welcome!
I have this printer and love it! But this app is a game changer for me! I've already printed some custom size photos! Thank you so much! I love your videos, You're the best! đ
Thank you so much! The app is awesome, best I have tried so far for me. I am glad you are enjoying it.
Thank you for your detailed help. Epson pm 400 is new for me so itâs super helpful. I bought the app. I like that itâs a one time purchase and not a monthly charge.
You are very welcome and I am glad the video was helpful!
Just received an Epson large format printer and can't wait to try this app. Thx for the review
Oooh how exciting! I had a large format printer for along time and it was nice. I hope you love the app as much as I do!
I have this printer and I love this printer so much! I switched from a canon SELPHY. Game changer!! You explain it so well and make it seem easy!
I am glad it was helpful. This printer is a game changer and if it broke I'd run out and buy the same one. Another viewer mentioned you referred her to this video. Thank you, I do appreciate it!
This was such a great video! I can see how the Print to Size app would be super handy, especially if you want white borders. It's definitely a great supplement to what I use.
I agree the apps are a nice supplement for each other. I have the pic collage on my phone but havenât done much with it yet. I will definitely try now it after seeing your tutorial.
THANK YOU ERIN....great video. I have this printer and love it. I also have boxes of photos that I have decided to scrap on a 12x12 or place in Project Life sleeves. The 12x12 is the highlight(s) of the event and then all those extra pictures I thought we needed and printed out years ago. For this year I am toying with the idea of scraping 12x12 layouts as usual but printing the only others that I really want in 4x4. Thank you for all your tips. You are a wealth of information....Margi
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. I like your idea of having the highlight photo as a 12x12 then the others in project life sleeves. One of my closest friends does this also and it works well. Square photos are always nice, they give you a lot more room on the layout compared to a 4x6
@@CraftyConceptswithErin perhaps I will print all of them 4x4. I love the idea that I would have more room, thank you. I would think the 4x4 would be easier to print also. Now I have to figure out how to print 4x4's on this printer. You make it look so easy.
Thanks, this looks easy. I read that book If I Were You. It was really good!
Yes it was! đ
I just ordered this epson through your link so I'm sure I'll be watching this video again several times
Thank you for using my link, that is very kind of you. Enjoy that printer, it is so good!
Thanks Erin! Going to cut me some mats to use for photo placement!
Oh good, I hope it is helpful for you. I love having a visual reference
Great video!
Thank you, I love the flexibility of printing at home.
From what I am searching as an Android user, there isn't a version for anything that isn't iphone. If someone else has luck, let us know. I searched through my Android phone apps and with my desktop and found that it said only for iphone or ipad users. Thank you for a great tutorial! As I told Jayma, it is great to have a full how-to for sizing photos. :-)
Thanks for letting me know, I looked it up on Google and it said it was available. Such a bummer if it isnât đą I wish I knew an android user and could have looked into it ahead of time.
Here is what I found when I googled it baixarapk.gratis/en/app/949490225/print-to-size
@@CraftyConceptswithErin I downloaded this and it's not the right app. Hope the company don't charge my credit card.
@@shannonstrait3208 OK thanks for letting me know, I definitely will not share it with anyone else. It has the exact same image icon and text description and says it is for android users. Iâm so disappointed đ
Thank you so much for this useful video. In 2005 I had an Epson printer I adored that I used to print photos for a military scrapbook I started work on while my husband was deployed to Iraq at the time, sending me photos digitally from where he was. It had the capacity to make photos from negatives and slides as well. When it quit working, I was so sad and I've never had a printer again that did such a good job. I've wanted an Epson again(still have a lot of the Epson paper) but didn't know which one to get. I appreciate your input in this decision and also am intrigued by the app you use--sounds like it is great for me, who is not very tech-savvy.
Hello, I am so glad this was a helpful video. Epson has always been my favorite for photo quality. The app is great and very simple to use. I will admit I discovered later that the android version was not legit so it is for iPhones only. I am sure your husband appreciates you documenting his time in the military, please thank him for his service.
Erin, thank you for this videoâŠI refer to it often. I recently tested printing 2 different 4x6 photos that were screenshots. I printed both on Epson Premium Glossy paper. The difference was one set of the 2 I used the Epson iPrint app and the 2nd set of the same photos I used the Print to Size App that you recommended in this video. What a difference! The set printed with the Print to Size app was sharper, clearer and was so much less blurry that I could read most of the info on the side of the fire engine in the background! I used my Epson PM 400 for both.
I especially like it for heritage photos that may not be up to todayâs photo capabilities. THANK YOU!
You are so very welcome and I am glad to hear you are happy with the app. It is so nice to be able to re-print heritage photos and have them look the best they possibly can
Great video Erin, very helpful. I've been printing from my computer with a cannon printer. I use a Mac computer and I have not found it very user friendly when it comes to printing odd sizes - lots of hoops to jump through. It does just the very basic fine. I'm definitely going to look into Print to Size and PicMonkey to see if I can get more versatility and an easier process. Hmmm...I also might have to look into the Epson Picture Mate - maybe it's time for a photo printer. I also like your tips for laying out your photos with the placeholders. Thank you!
Hi Diane, I agree the Mac doesn't make it easy. My ancient Desktop Mac came with a program called iPhoto which is amazing when it comes to printing odd sizes. They discontinued it and I'm so bummed my new laptop doesn't have those options. Most all my photos are on the phone now so I just print from there. PicMonkey does look like a good option for the computer.
Hi Erin, thanks for this great tutorial! I have been playing with the Print to Size app and am wondering if you have tips for getting the white borders even and consistent size for all of your photos? for example I'm trying to do 2 pics on one 4x6 and not sure how to get the white border even around both. Thank you!
I love how apps/software allow you to change everything about the photo...I think I'll put me on a beach somewhere in Tahiti for my next layout....lol. Joking aside, isn't it GREAT to change the way we're looking, the color of our top, etc!
Haha a beach in Tahiti sounds perfect!
Thank you! Iâm definitely going to try the app. I have a picture mate too.
That is great, it is such a handy little printer. I hope you enjoy the app as much as I do.
@@CraftyConceptswithErin just an fyi, the app was a 1.99. Iâm pretty sure I bought the correct one.
Thank you for sharing this! I'm terrible when printing photos. I hate dealing with it, so I just go crazy on Persnickety prints. I don't like wasting the photo's, so I end up with so many layouts, it is crazy!
Itâs so hard to throw photos away isnât it? I just canât do it so I was creating a lot of layouts too. It was suggested to do a highlight 12x12 layout and then tuck the other photos in a pocket page to speed up the process. Itâs still a lot of layouts though. Printing at home has definitely helped me have less photos
Thank you so much for this. I am looking for a printer so this video helped a lot. I love the idea of the app. Going on scrapbook retreats will be very different now, no bucket of pictures that never get scrapped. Now what to do with that box of duplicate photos. Thanks again.
This is truly a great printer! Iâm glad you found this video helpful. I donât know what to do with those duplicates either đ
Hi Erin.. thank you so much for this video. Very helpful. I have had the Epson PM 400 for a couple of years and Iâve been using the Epson app which is very tricky, sometimes
this will be a huge timesaver. đ
You were recommended to me by Kelly Baxter Fitzgerald.
Thank you Cindy! I am so glad this was helpful for you. The app was definitely a game changer for me. That was nice of Kelly to recommend me, she is an incredibly talented crafter.
You're the best! Between the 3 of you I feel confident to embark on printing my photos. No waiting a week for pictures that sometimes are not quite right. Are you an Amazon affiliate ?
Hello Belinda, I do hope you enjoy printing from home. I love it so much I will never go back to sending away for my photos. Yes to your Amazon affiliate question, the printer and coordinating products are affiliate links.
I do print at home. I have a canon selfy. I love my selfy and your right I also have a huge box of photos that I printed at a photoshop, waste of money! I am going to look into printer size app. I need to have choices, right now I have pic collage which is good but itâs hard to tell the size until itâs printed so I have wasted paper. Thanks for all the great ideas on printers and apps.đđ»
Hello Cindy! Printing at home was a game changer for me and I love the versatility. I downloaded pic collage but the app Iâm using is so easy I havenât really tried the others
I got this printer after watching your earlier video and I absolutely love it! Thank you! I also just learned that I can print my journaling from Word onto 4x6 cardstock through this printer! This was an exciting find because I wanted something portable for a crop and also because my large laser printer at home jams when I use cardstock. Iâm so happy with this little Epson beauty!
I am so glad you are happy with the printer. I use mine for journaling at crops too. I didnât think to mention that in the video but I should have. Itâs so handy!
Iâd love to know how to print my journaling on the Epson 400 âŠ. Iâll be attending an out of state crop this month, so that would really come in handy! Anyone out there who has a video?
Lisa How did you figure out how to print your journaling bc that it was I really want to do I purchased this printer and have been having a hard time with it - (user issue I am sure )
@@CraftyConceptswithErin Hi do you have a video on how to print your journaling on cards from this printer? I would love to know how to do. this. Thank you
@@jeneewesterfeld5714 hello, I do not but that is a great idea for a future video. Iâve had several people share that they use a text box like I do in this video, print their journaling on plain printer paper and then use temporary adhesive to adhere their pocket card over the printed area and then run the same printer paper through again. If itâs a 4x6 pocket card I just size my paper to 4x6 and run it directly through the printer. I hope that gives you a few ideas to try out .
Regarding the white space when showing how to make a square picture, i might snap pics of words, signs, etc to fill the small white space. Now i have titles or words to add to scrapbook pages.
The photos of book covers is brilliant, too.
Oh that is a great idea!
I use the same printer and paper. My last cartridge I was able to print 2-5x7âs and 98-4x6âs before the low ink message appeared. I was able to print an additional 37 4x6âs before it stopped printing so 137 pics ~ 31 cents each.
Excellent! Thatâs good to know. I should test mine again, itâs been a few years.
Excellent job, wonderful information. You are a great teacher.
Yes i het about that many prints as well. I print usually all in one day since i donât get to scrapbook but once a month.đ
So 5x7 in all you can't get that many print out
Thank you for your informative video. You were very clear and zoomed in when needed. I did have to pause and re-run some parts (but that's on me). I also watched the one by Jayma Maime and another by a Katy (recommended by Jayma). All three of you use DIFFERENT photo apps for resizing and printing your photos from home. Print to size (you), PicFrame (Jayma) and Pic Monkey (Katy). They ALL seem great, and I know you are probably going to say, "it's just personal preference". I agree. But for someone completely NEW to this whole "print from home" scenario, is there some type of comparison chart to help me DECIDE?? I am pretty tech savvy (for a SENIOR CITIZEN) but NOT for the average "grew up with a smart phone in my hand" generation. So, I am looking for advice. I have an Android phone. Is there one of those apps that works better on an Android?
Thank you for any guidance/recommendations you can give me.
I hear the app for the printer has grid templates so you can put multiple pics on your 4x6 or 5x7.
I use print-to-size and usually just adjust sizes myself to grid pics but will try the Epson one too.
I should try the Epson app just to see how it works.
When my mother passed away, I inherited all of her photos (a lot!). So, instead of just storing them, I took one of those CM containers & sorted them into types of photos like snow, horses, family groups, grandparents, siblings, etc. Now every year my brother gets a photo album for Christmas using some of those old photos. Each album has a theme. Last Christmas it was family reunions. I also make a "life" album for each of his kids when they graduated from college using the old photos. (My mother took tons of photos of the grandkids.) Just thought I would share what you could do with those photos you have stored if you are like me being the only scrapbooker in the family.
Those are all really great ideas! I am sorry for the loss of your mom, how special to document the memories and gift them to your brother for Christmas.
This printer is on every Aussie scrapbookers wish list. We all have sent Epson emails about getting this printer into Australia but without success. Do you know any bigwigs at Epson you can chat to (wink)? LOL. Youâll hear us all cheer from the U.S. when it finally happens.
Hi Jammie, that is such a bummer itâs not available for you there. I wish I did know someone and could put in a good word but unfortunately I donât. Fingers crossed. Becomes available sooner than later!
Erin will the Print to Size app work for other photo printers like the Canon Selphy? Excellent tutorial. Thank you.
Hello Helen, that is a good question but I am not sure. I donât see why it wouldnât. I do not have a canon selphy but I have a few other printers and this app works with them.
Thank you for your videoâŠso informative. Is there a way to âalignâ the picture to have the same white border around it?
You are very welcome! When I originally downloaded this app it has a dotted line border that gave you a perfect margin every time then one day it randomly disappeared. Now I just eyeball it and am usually able to get it even.
@@CraftyConceptswithErin Thank you!
I go to Walmart and use their kiosk. Lately, since it was a spur of the moment decision, Iâve been doing the prints in seconds option. I had 59ct 4x6âs at $0.51/print.
Hello Coralie, Walmart is definitely a convenient option for many.
Thanks for this information! Is the âPrint to Sizeâ app a monthly subscription or a one time purchase?
Itâs a one time purchase.
I just discovered your videos. Very good. Can I buy the photo place cards from your Close to My Heart site?
Hello Dayna, I am so glad you discovered my channel. Unfortunately the place card holder can not be bought through my site, they come in the scrapbooking workshops. You can also make some from cardstock or printer paper and cut them to your typical photo sizes.
Informative video! Question - are you able to use any photo paper in this printer or it must be Epson?
Hi Jenny, I have only used Epson in mine but Jayma mentioned in her video that she uses both Epson and Canon paper and it works for her. With previous printers Iâve owned I did noticed the quality was best when the corresponding photo paper was used.
Hi Erin - I found your wonderful video through Kelly Baxter Fitzgerald , my CTMH rep. You did a great job. However, even though I did exactly what I saw you do, (I put two 3x4s on one 4x6 paper), my pics turned out very grainy. Do you have any idea what I may have done wrong? Thank you!
Hello, Kelly is such a talented Maker, I love her artwork! I am sorry your photos turned out grainy. There can be many factors contributing to photo quality. What printer and paper are you using? Iâm assuming the Epson picture mate but want to be sure. Additionally if the photos were texted to you or if you saved them from a platform like Facebook the quality will not be as good.
Erin, thank you so much for doing this video! I have a question?? I bought my printer five or six months ago and I bought extra ink and photo paper! Will my ink be OK if I havenât used it yet? My printer, ink and photo paper side of a cabinet that has a door on it. I need to spend some time organizing my photos!! I keep on procrastinating, I know I need to get with the program! Lol thanks so much again I think your channel is absolutely awesome! PS I also went on that app and it says theyâre charging $2.99 for the app, Iâm assuming thatâs each month?đ€
Hello Elizabeth, I do not have a monthly charge for the app so it is a one time purchase. Your ink will be okay unopened in the package but the ink in your printer will eventually dry out. Storing it in a cabinet should help and I have read covering the whole printer with a plastic bag can help also. I can't say how long that will take because I print regularly. I know it can be hard to make time for scrapbooking especially organizing photos.
Thanks, Erin. I do have a question... I save a lot of my photos to my computer. I'm assuming I can print from my computer to the printer just fine. I'm wondering if the printer alone (without an app) also offers features for printing directly from my computer. I really like the features you showed us on the app. I had to laugh.. I have the very same Creative Memory archive boxes (not just one) - full of pictures!!
Lol, Iâm sure there are lots of us that have those same creative memories boxes stacked up. You can definitely print directly from your computer. On the printer itself you can set it for 3 1/2 x 5, 4 x 6 or 5 x 7. I know there are lots of different photo software options out there so I think it might depend on what you are using. My friend Katy uses Pic Monkey on her computer to get the odd sized photos. All the photos that are on my computer are also on my phone so I typically just print directly from the phone. I do have an ancient desktop that still uses iPhoto. I print directly to the Epson which will print out whatever size I tell it as long as itâs less than a 5 x 7. Hopefully that makes sense.
Where can I download the Photo Placement cards? Thank you for this informative video. I print at home my photos I will need.
Hello, CTMH doesn't have their photo place cards available for download unfortunately. They do add them to their scrapbooking workshop kits which is nice but, I recommend you cut a template in the different photo sizes from white cardstock. I am glad the video was helpful.
Erin, I am trying to connect my MacBook Pro to my Epson PM 400.
I donât know what cable that I need.
I have also been trying to use WiFi but it isnât working either đ„Help if you donât mind đ
I am sorry you are having trouble. I am not super techie but I can tell you mine uses a wifi connection (no cable) and your laptop or phone needs to be on the same wifi to communicate. It may be you internet server. When I switched to Starlink my PictureMate wouldn't connect to my devices and it was super frustrating. I researched it on CZcams and there is a workaround. Luckily for me my in laws live next door and allow me to connect to their internet when printing so I didn't have to deal with the Starlink issue.
Wonderful Video. I love the print to size app you use, but unfortunately I have an Android and this app is not available. You wouldn't have to know of an equivalent one for android phones? Thank you!
oops, I didn't complete the video before I asked the question. :-) I still can't find it on android, but I'll keep looking. Thanks!
Hello Paulette, I am glad you found the video help. Unfortunately I was miss guided and sadly there is not a print to size version for androids. When I googled it there was a link and everything looked exactly as it should but when people attempted to download it it took them somewhere else and was not the correct app. Many of my crafting friends use pic collage which my friend Jayma shared in her video. It is not the same but it does work for androids.
@@CraftyConceptswithErin Thanks for the information!
Will the app add the printer if Bluetooth is on? Or do I need to add it manually? Hope this makes sense. đ
Hello, the printer connects via wifi but has its own wifi capabilities so you can connect even in remote locations. Your Bluetooth does need to be turned on in your phone and all available printers pop up automatically in the app when you select print.
I have been using print to size but have never used it to print and size my photos because it didnât dawn on me that I could use it with my canon SELPHY. I canât believe I didnât realize it but thank you still for a basic step by step on how you use this app. đ„°
Oh that is great you can still use the app for your selphy! Itâs always nice to have options đ
Does Print to Size work with all printers? I have a different Epson and itâs difficult to print 4x4.
The print to size app should work with any printer your phone or device can communicate with. I have two Epson printers and it works with both.
Hello...I just bought this printer and was wondering if there's an app for using with a computer?
Hi Catherine, you are going to love it! My friend uses PicMonkey to print from her computer and really likes that program.
I was wondering does that app have different filters to make your pic look better?
That is a great question. Unfortunately it does not have any filters. I just edit my pics with the options in photo library.
I can't seem to find the soft ware print to size you use. Do you by chance have a link?
Hello Shannon, are you an iPhone user or android? There is still some speculation as to whether or not the android version is actually legit. When you Google it it comes up with a downloadable app but I have no way to test it and Iâve heard feedback that it isnât working. I have reached out to the company and I am waiting for an answer. If you are an iPhone user this link will take you there apps.apple.com/us/app/print-to-size/id949490225
Hi Erin, Do you find that if you don't print for awhile the ink drys up? I am getting alot of streaking on my photos but it shows my ink cartridge is still full. Also, have you made a video since this one showing how to print journaling? Thank you so much!
Hello Angela, I print photos at the very least twice a week. The streaking does indicate ink dying and the nozzles need to be cleaned which does waste ink. I donât know if there is any validity to this idea but maybe tightly wrap your printer in a plastic bag when not in use. It might slow the drying out process. Keep it away from windows with direct sunlight where it might get hot too. Have you watched my ten ways to add journaling video? I havenât done an updated one specifically on journaling since this one czcams.com/video/k5RfhyNKZbs/video.html
@@CraftyConceptswithErin thanks Erin, appreciate the input! Iâll watch the attached video too. Btw, watched your scrap room org video yesterday and loved it! Sometimes I think I enjoy organizing my scrap supplies more than I love scrapping!
Print to size app (clafou) shows ânot secureâ when you explore the appâs about us link. Is this a problem if we have photos with info âŠreceipts accounts etc we may have screenshots of?
Hello Rhonda, I have since discovered the Print to Size app is only good for iPhone users. There is an app that appears to be the same for android but do not use it, itâs not legit. I have been using the app with my iPhone for years with no issue and highly recommend it. I know there are many others that use it as well.
Can you use the app and send photo to print if you donât print from home?
I can use the Print to Size app to crop my photos or maybe add two 3x4 pics to a 4x6 size then instead of print I can save them as a Jpeg to my camera roll. From there I can send it anywhere to print so I think that would be a yes to your question.
Two questions Is there a way when I order for you to get cre
Hi Joy, yes there is. If you shop from my site I do get credit. I appreciate your support, thank you! erinjacobson.closetomyheart.com/
It says the app is $1.99. Is that the correct one? Thanks. Great video
Yes I did pay that amount for the app. Itâs well worth it đ
By any chance would this print on sticker paper
Hello, that is a great question. I just ordered some sticker paper so I can try it out when it arrives.
All of my pictures are on SD cards. Will this printer work with a laptop?
Hi Kimberly, yes this printer prints from my phone, iPad, desktop and MacBook without issue. I absolutely love it and will buy it again when mine wears out.
Thank you so much for sharing đ
I'm an Android user. Will this printer work with an Android?
Is it just the App you use with your Iphone that won't work but I'd be able to use a different App?
I'm not at all tech savvy đ
I love yours and all the positive comments but I can't find one on Amazon đą
Hello, this printer will absolutely work with an android just not the app. There are many other printing apps out there but the printer is amazing! I checked on Amazon and itâs available from others sellers but the price is currently very high. Itâs typically around $249 so I would wait. The price is probably inflated due to the demand around the holidays.

Thank you so much for your kind, quick and thoughtful reply đ
I'm so glad to hear that the printer will work with Android and that it's still available to purchase... at some point đ
It's so nice to see what a fellow crafter is using as there are so many different brands and types available that it gets overwhelming so I never end up making a decision. I'm so glad I found your channel.
Thank you again!

@@ForTheLoveOfMike you are so kind! Thank you for subscribing and I hope you find a lot of inspiring ideas to try.
Thanks for all the info! I know this wasn't really meant for part of your video, but could you tell me the name of that CM photo box? Thanks!
Hi Pam, unfortunately they do not make it any longer but there is a similar option about half the size. Itâs from Creative Memories and you can order it online. If you do not have a contact I recommend Jodie Short. It will prompt you to select a consultant and you can just type her name in. She is very helpful!
I could not fine the Print to size app; is it iPhone only?
Hello Beth, when I first was looking I did find what appeared to be a legit option but it turns out it is not. It was so deceiving and Iâm very sad to say it looks like it is iPhone only.
I can't find print to size. Is it just for iPhone? I have an android?
Hello Jo, sadly it is only for iPhone. I was able to find what looked like a legit option but several android users came back and said it was not good. I am very sorry it isn't available for you.
What is the name of the edit/print app you use?
Hello, it is called Print to Size. It is iPhone only, just a heads up.
what I phone is required
Hello Linda, it doesnât specifically say what iPhone is required but some features may be available on newer phones. Have the iPhone 11x and was using the 7 prior to that.
How do you know what size you're gonna want your photos?
Hello Lisa, that is an excellent question. I do have a video I will link you may find helpful. I always begin with how many photos I have to tell the story. From there I will decide if it is a single or double page layout. Generally if I have three or less it will be a single page. Then I decide which photo is the most important, I tend to print it larger. 4x6 pics take up a lot of room so I prefer 3.5 x 5 for single page layouts. I then typically print the accompanying photos smaller at 3x4 or 3x3. It helps to have an inspiration layout or layout design in mind before you print your pics. czcams.com/video/luWavaEFC0c/video.html
@@CraftyConceptswithErin thank you for the help. I'm actually gonna show this video to my husband. Mayb I can finally work on some other photos instead of my daughter from 25 yrs ago...lol
Doesn't the printer come with a App to use? To print out your pictures. Why would you have to get another App? Or is it cause you just want more options? I just bought a Epson ET, and I am hoping to learn it, and print with the App. I really don't want to DL another App. to get pictures.
Hello, Iâm sure Epson has their own apps, I just really like this one. I have several friends who also use the Epson picture made 400 and each of them uses a different app to suit their personal preference.
Has anyone found a similar app for android yet? I haven't been able to...:(
I hope someone weighs in for you with a comparable app. Such a bummer itâs not compatible.
The app is not available for Android for anyone wondering
Yes thank you, I discovered that shortly afterwards so added I added the update to the description and posted on the community tab. It looked legit but when it was tested by android users it took them to a whole other app. Iâm sorry for the misinformation. The printer is amazing though!
Is this app free? I saw this app and a fee of $2.99 was that correct? đ
That sounds about right, I did pay for mine and it is well worth the cost. I hope you love it!
"when you only scrapbook what is actually going in the album"? Do you mean, " when you only PRINT what is going in the album"?
Whoops, I didnât catch that when I edited the video but yes, I only print what is going into the album so Iâm not storing tons of photos. I choose my favorite photos from the event and make sure to include everyone and the important details. Many of my photos will be similar or maybe the same subject but different angle. I narrow it down to the best one.
