printing at costco

[frankraney130]

Can I export straight to my costco account for printing, with ICC files.  Or do I just print to jpg, using the ICC file, to my desktop, then upload to costco, which is what ia currently doing.  I just want to eliminate a couple of steps.

You could check out the Costco Photo Center (US and Canada) plugins:

thanks, I already had that installed, but can not get it to work. When I export, there is no option to export to costco.  Does it have to be registered for that part? To use their ICC files I find I have to print to a jpg, saving in a folder, the uploading from there.

I'ver never used the plugin -- maybe someone else here has. You might try contacting the developer directly.

Can just export the image with the output color space using an profile you get from them. You can do all this in the Print module (JPEG) after selecting the profile and desired rendering intent along with output sharpening or in the Export dialog to TIFF but no options for Rendering Intent.

I figured it out.....The export function is just like exporting to a folder on disk or instagram etc.  No printing instructions or info is included, only size srgb etc.......to export with their ICC print info, I have to PRINT (not export) using the ICC file for printing, and save on my computer somewhere, then log into costco and upload that ICC priinted file.  Can not export with ICC. 

Thanks
