1. Re: Photoshop is scaling my Prints up without my permission?
dpisdd85127488 Feb 27, 2017 12:02 PM (in response to dpisdd85127488)I'm thinking the problem comes from the difference between Rendering Resolution ppi and Printing Resolution dpi.....The Rendering Resolution has two settings 300 and 600. The Printing Resolution is set at 1200 x 1200. The image I'm printing is 180 ppi. Anyone have any advice? I have never run into this problem before and I'm starting to think there is some sort of communication error between PS and the printer.

The Print dialog shows that image is not being scaled it shows 100% that the width is 41" inches and the height is 16.211 inches that the paper being printed on is 43.5" wide and 18" high there is some unprintable area . The image being printed fits within the printable area and the preview show the image has small white borders on the top left and bottom and a large white border on the right.

You should see now that Photoshop's print preview and Photoshop Image size preview look the same it image has small borders on top left and bottom and a big right border. The image is 7380px by 2918px an when printed with 180dpi pixels will print 41" wide by 16,211' high. Any Printer DPI setting is a a quality setting not the image dpi resolution. It controls how well the printer will paint in the image 180dpi pixels. The higher 1200 dpi printer resolution setting paint in the image larger 180dpi pixels finer using smaller droplets of diffent color inks so the 180 dpi pixels color are right and the pixels have higher quality. To be honest I do not know what that render 300 ppi resolution is all about display PPI resolution can not be changed and your display most likely does not have a 300ppi resolution.

dpisdd85127488 Feb 28, 2017 6:03 AM (in response to JJMack)I'm guessing it is an issue with the printer driver communicating with PS. I am going to reinstall Photoshop again and see if it changes. It seems like HP has been giving others problems in this area.

dpisdd85127488 Feb 28, 2017 6:19 AM (in response to dpisdd85127488)It looks like another reinstall of Photoshop has done the trick for now. I did try to just do a CTRL+ALT+SHIFT reset with no luck but the clean install has seemed to fix the communication with the printer driver somehow. All is back to normal for now.
