Poster printing

You live and learn.  In helping another user with a printer problem, I discovered that both my Epson and HP printers can print posters in various configurations.  So, it seems to me that Elements should be able to use the printer's capability to do so.  It will be necessary to go into the Page Setup dialog and enable the poster printing in the Printer's driver dialog. 

Why bother?  I just take my images like that (bigger than 8.5. x 11) on a thumb drive to a local print place hand have them print it up for me at the size-- which would cost me about 60 cents... I save tons of time by doing that. 

The suggestion by Greg S is about the only way you can do it- and it's going to produce poor looking results regardless of how careful you are cuttiing things. 

Moe, you said:  I need help to print a 19" x 12" image using 8.5 x 11 tiles. 

You now say you want to fit a 19x12 actual size image into four 8.5x11 prints. 

Your numbers don't make sense.  If you were to tape four letter-size pages together, you would end up with a poster that is 17x22 inches.  Since the dimensions of your original image of 19x12 is not the same aspect ratio as your printed page, something is going to be cut off unless you are using some kind of border around the edges. 

So, while it would be possible to use Elements to crop an appropriate image into 4 rectangle documents that could then be printed on US letter-sized paper and pasted together, I'm not sure whether this is going to work for you. 

The problem is that the image at 19x12" will not fit on 8.5x11 background (tile). Even the aspect ratios are not in alignment.

If you are so inclined, please post a representative picture file for us to look at. You can do that via the Insert Photos icon at the top of the reply box here on the forum; however, you can not do it via email reply.
