Changing Printer Properties - Paper size/type

May 25, 2012 12:44 PM

Why do I need to change the paper type/size in Lightroom everytime I want to print  aphoto, even during the same session

 

I set the paper to say 15 * 18 and borderless and select print. The paper size shown in the top left changes back to A4 by itself. Try setting the options again and they remain as selected. Select another photo and try to print 15 * 18 borderless and the paper size changes again. This is a pain.

 

Anyone else have this problem?

    Once you have got the print settings to your liking you need to save tham as a new user template.  To do this click on the + on the Template Browser tab, name the template and save it.

    There may be another got-you if you are using an HP printer under Windows as the printer default settings are saved in about 3 different places and all must be set the same - the most common problem is reverting to printer managing colours instead of application (Lightroom) and reverting to main paper tray when you think you have the bypass large sheet path selected.
