    Thank you, very easy to understand and comprehensive guide! really appreciate

  • Paula Marshall says:

    This didn’t do anything different. I wanted it BIGGER. All it did was break the image up into 4 little pieces and wasted a bunch of paper. And the image was already over 1200×1400!

    • Meggan says:

      I had to play with the size of the background (white part) of paint, before pasting the image I wanted to make larger.
      You can do a print preview before printing to make sure it looks like what you are wanting.
      Good luck!

    It was what I needed. My husband needed the shape from a vintage radio. We do not live in a big city; any printshop would be at least half an hour drive away and we have a perfectly good laser printer but just for A4 And he didn’t need colour for the shape. He was so pleased I could print it for him. Now he can make the template for the radio. Thanks ever so much for your tip!

  • KYY says:

    Thank you

  • Sudheer says:

    nice

  • la davey says:

    very easy. and everyone has this tool so a good thing to know

  • JohnM says:

    It all sounded so good but even though I specified several pages the print preview still just shows the first page. Also it would be helpful to explain that when you specify n x m which is horizontal and which is vertical.

  • Ethylene says:

    Is there a way to specify the end size needed? For example, I want the finished printing to be 16″ x 20″.

  • Saleh says:

    Very Helpful!Thanks

  • kameel says:

    very handy and simple free tool that does the job

  • Martin says:

    I wanted to see a sample of what the image might look like when printed – but struggled to print just one page.
    Solution I found was to print to a PDF file and print the relevant page(s) from the PDF. In my case, the full print was 3 pages wide by 9 high making 27 pages in all – printing just page 8 of my PDF let me see a key area as it would in the final print
    Thanks for a useful article

  • Jess says:

  • Helena Troy says:

    ps my other PC isn’t 10 so I can’t do the work on its version of Paint.

  • Helena Troy says:

    I have two PCs, one has windows 10, the other has the printer, as I use that PC more. Is there way to save the “postered” picture as a series of single jpgs so that I can print them individually from the other pc? Otherwise it means unplugging the printer and setting it up on the 10 PC and then putting it back on the other. Thanks

    Thanks, this is so simple. Having a party , able to print out large pictures ???. Thanks for your help

  • Marsha says:

    Ciprian, Thank you so-o-o much for taking the time to show us how simple an otherwise extremely complex job could be! In a world where everything seems to be getting more and more unnecessarily complex, it’s really nice to find the things that can be simplified–and it was right in front of us all along, but you’re the one who figured it out and cared enough to share what you know. Thanks again!

  • Tanya says:

    rather than coming on multiple pages. my half image has come on one side and half image on other side of A4 sheet

    • Ciprian Adrian Rusen says:

      Your printer’s settings need to be changed, so that it doesn’t print on both sides of the paper.

  • Basanta Thapa says:

    Thanks

  • Cibin says:

    Thanks buddy. Your solution saved me some humiliation.

  • Teresa Reid says:

    Thank you sooo much, this realy worked,your instructions are easy to follow

  • lilyG says:

    Is it possible to scale the image not so that it fits the pages but instead has a specific height and length?

  • granny says:

    as a novice, accustomed to using the obsolete Adobe printshop 6 (which I dearly miss) this was a grea, step by step tutorial. Easy to follow, no ‘insider’ terms that I had to GOOGLE and the result is great. Thank you

  • Mike C. says:

    Let me just say that it did enlarge my picture. But as another has said serveral pages were blank. Any suggestions?

  • Mike C. says:

    I looked at the picture you say that was used for this. But however as I looked at the pages that were printed it is obvious to me it doesn’t match.
    Have a look at the humming bird and the leaves next to him and it will be seen.

  • Lori says:

    I needed a specific size and I was able to do it by adjusting the margins. Great!

  • K says:

    Is there a way to only print the image, and not all the white in the background? When I attempted to print it 3X5, the entire space was printed. I wanted just the actual image to be 3×5 It ended up being about 2X2 and the rest of the 11 pages were plain white.

  • Jo says:

    Very useful and clear instructions. Got the image I wanted, the size Iwanted. Thank you

  • Rosemary says:

    HELP. I have read and re read this page and no matter what way I do it I can only get image on 2 pages HELP

  • Rick V says:

    Beautiful, wonderful, works great

  • Toy says:

    THANK YOU SOOO MUCH! It worked like a charm. Thanks for taking the time to post this. πŸ™‚

  • jvd says:

    Margins are an issue for me, and maybe that’s a limit of using Paint for large format printing. I’m not able to indicate zero margins, which means I need to overlap my pages like you have in the photo.

  • JJ says:

    No, it didn’t work. I need the pages to be a specific size not just letter size. any help would be greatly appreciated

    • DavidW says:

      The same dialog box that you use for scaling also lets you specify the page size — even a non-standard custom size.

  • ddjsjd says:

    Amazing !! Thank you so much πŸ™‚

  • Red says:

    How many sheets will be used for a 20×24 picture?

  • Szczek says:

    Yea, at the beginning of this question my first step was Paint, but I failed.
    As for me, the best way to print poster on multiple pages is “using the correct software”. there are many application for that postrazor, print …etc….but, in my opinion, better choise is RonyaSoft poster printer. thx to that program I’ve printed poster of my family on wall…..Now it’s looking really amazing πŸ™‚
