Unable To Print from Elements 14 Editor

I am all of a sudden unable to print from my Elements 14 editor to either of my printers. I can print from elements 14 organizer but not from the editor.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the editor but no change. The printing feature seems really messed up.  My default printer is a Canon PIXMA MX922 and I also have an HP C310 printer installed. When I change the printer to try to print to the HP printer, it tries to print to the Canon and fails. I have used Elements for a long time and I really do not want to be driven to PaintShop just to print single pictures.  Can anyone please help?

    Rahuj,

    You are going to think I am a real dope, but when I click on "more options", I to not see "use each photo" selection. Also, when I bring the photo into print window it is large than the "frame" shown and one "frame" looks larger than the other. Do I maybe have a bad PSE 14 loaded software? You are being very patient with me.

    Try this in Editor:]

    1. File>New>blank file, enter 4"x 6" , resolution 300px/in, background white. This will be the canvas and your background layer.
    2. Open your picture file, go Select>all, then Edit>copy to put it on the clipboard
    3. Go back to the canvas, then Edit>paste. This will generate Layer 1
    4. Activate the move tool, and drag the picture to one side
    5. Activate the canvas layer again
    6. Go to Edit>paste and position the picture ( Layer 2)
    7. Use the corner handles of the move tool to resize the picture, if necessary

    Suggest that you reset preferences to default in Editor. To do that, go to Edit>Preferences>General and look for this:

    I did that and now I get a print error " Could not print "xwp.JPG" because there is not enough memory on the external memory boards".

    Hi Gary,

    This feature of printing is present in Element Organizer 14-> "More options"-> Layout-> use each photo. Following are the steps:

    1. import the image in Organizer catalog

    2. Select and click cntrl+p to print the image

    3. Select the paper size as 4x6 and print size as 2.1x2.8(You can give custom size as well)

    4. Click on "more options" button, increase the count of "use each photo"

    5. Click Ok

    6. Verify print preview.

    With this you can get the same image, multiple times on same paper. 

    Please revert if in case of any doubt.

    Thanks,

    Rahul
