How the heck do I print actual size of pictures with Windows XP!?!?!

[Techie333]

When I open .jpg files and etc in Microsoft Office Picture Manager or Windows Picture and Fax Viewer, and hit print, the stupid Photo printer wizard comes up and there are options to print the picture full page, 8x10, 3x5, 1000x1000, BS, etc. WTF?!?!?!!? There is no option for it to print ACTUAL SIZE OF PIC!?!??!?! WTF MICROSOFT!?!? GET BETTER ENGINEERS U FACKING MORONS!!!

Actual size of what? Pixels? Pixels don't come out on paper. Pixels are a screen measurement.

actual size of picture man! i.e. if the picture is 4.4 x 5.4, there is no option to have it print that size. you gotta select full photo, 3x5, wallet size...etc..

I have been having the exact same fricken problem trying to print some of my scans of things for rebates.......AND IT PISSES ME OFF!!!!!!! It is hit or miss, sometimes it prints the same size as original and other times it scales it smaller to fit on one page.....AARRRGH!!

Finally, somebody that understands my problem!
If I could find the IDIOT that designed this wizard, I would take a shotgun to his balls!!! That's how freakin annoying this problem is!!!!!!!

If you have office, then you have word. Why don't you just drag it into a word document and print it?

Or, you could just open MSPaint and change the document size to 8x10, and put the picture in the middle of a totally white image, so that when it prints, nothing prints for the rest of the area (because printers obviously print nothing when they need to do white.)
