I had used Microsoft Paint (free accessory that comes with Windows) as a print utility before but not specifically to print “non-color managed” files. After only recently understood some of the concepts related to the issue on several threads here, I wondered why one couldn't use Paint as an alternative to ACPU. It seems to me that it has no color management facility. It prints whatever file you open as is, taking in jpegs as well as tiffs. The advantage over ACPU is that it has a good (enough) page layout capability so the image can be placed properly on the page. What I do not know is whether it inadvertently does anything to the size of the image in the print like what happens in ACPU. If it does not, then that would be an added bonus. I have printed same files on both ACPU and Paint with no discernible, color-wise, difference (by my untrained eye though) between the two.
So the question is: Am I correct in this proposition or am I overlooking a pitfall or two?
