Several print per page

[Hellstan]

Is there a possibility, with LR, A2, Photoshop or C1, to print several pictures abreast,
side by side, on a roll ?
I don't run Vista or Mac Intel, so no Quimage for me.

If you're printing out of photoshop you can just make a new document with the same ppi, color space and bit depth as the images you are going to print. ( you may have to adjust some of your images)

Make the new document the size of the page you want.

Then, copy and paste the images you'd like to print into the new doc.

Arrange them using the move tool. If you want stuff to line up in a certain way, pull some guides down and over and turn on "snap to guides" in the "view" menu.

This works but all the images should have the same basic properties as the new document

LR i don't know, i don't use it. A rip will allow this more easily but it's easy enough to accomplish this way.

Thanks Peter I'll check your method.
I thought the Z3100 had an integrated RIP with the driver.

Only if you paid the extra $1k for it.

Lightroom allows many custom page setup features so printing several images per page is easy.  Now if you wanted to print multiple copies of the same image on one page... there's nothing in Lightroom that allows that to my knowledge.  What you could do is create multiple virtual copies of the same image, as many as you need on one page, and select them all and print them out that way...

Thanks, Wolf,

I'll check with LR how to print several images per page.
No, I did not think of the same one, but that's an option too,
as soon as I'll find the first one.

Here, first price for EFI RIP is 600 €.

I actually took some time this morning to read the Lightroom manual...

In the Print Module, under "Image Settings" there's a check box called 'Print One Photo per Page.'  Set up your page in say a 4x5 configuration, select X number of photos, and it will print 20 copies of each image on a separate page for each.  If you uncheck that box it will simply print up to 20 images on the page (depending on how many images you have selected).

Mike.

P.S.  The Quick Collection tool is handy for this, because in the Grid view you can use the 'B' key to add the images you want to print to your Quick Collection, then simply select that for printing.

I saw it.
Thank you a whole lot for the research.
I've not understood yet how I add images in the Print Module, after selecting A3.
Having a roll 600 mm wide, I wish to print 2 images side by side (2 scans from 6*6 negs),
so it should be two squares around 28 cm x 28 cm.
Will look a bit more…
By the way, when pressing B, then selecting an image, it selects only one — cannot
select two or more in the Print Module page.

No.  You make your selections in the Library module.  In Grid view, you can select individual images by control-clicking on them, or a strip of images by clicking on the first one and then shift-clicking on the last one.  You can also do this in the filmstrip.

If you click on an image or series of images and then press 'B', it adds that image or images to the Quick Collection.  You can then click on the Quick Collection (in the left pane of the Library module) and then go to the print module.  This is handy if you're planning to print a series of images from different folders, without having to worry if you're control-clicking and keeping the ones you want.  If all of the images you want to print are in the same folder, you don't need to worry about creating a Quick Collection.

If I'm not being clear, this is the procedure.  Let's say you want to print a collection of images from different folders.  Go to the Library module and select the grid view.  Click on each image (or shift or control click on a group of images) you want to print, and press 'B' on the keyboard to add that images or images to your quick collection.  Alternately, if you mouse over the image and you see a small circle in the upper right corner of the image, clicking on that circle will add the image to the Quick Collection.  Setting that up is under View Options, but that's getting off topic.

So, you've gone through your folders, selected the images for printing, and added them all to your Quick Collection.  In the left pane of the Library Module (under 'Library' and just below 'All Photographs' is 'Quick Collection'.  Click on that and it will show you the images you've added to your Quick Collection.  If those are the images you want, then go to the Print module.

In the Print Module, click on Page Setup (at the bottom of the screen) and select 'A3' as a paper size.  Now in the right hand panel of the Print module under Layout you set up your cell size (the size of each image), the spacing between the cells, the page margins, the numbers of rows and columns (2 columns in this case), etc.

Hope that helps...

P.S.  A Quick Collection is not intended to be a permanent collection.  It's something you can empty and refill with different sets of images.  If you've added a group of images to your Quick Collection and think you may want to use this same group of images again later, you can create a Collection of those images (in the Library Module) by right clicking (Windows) or control clicking (Mac) on where it says 'Quick Collection' and selecting 'Save Quick Collection'.  Your Collections are stored farther down the left panel in the Library module, underneath 'Folders'.
