Hi there,

Here's the setup, I've got one image, that I want printed on a page twice.

Why can't I seem to do this?

I've been a Mac user for a long time now, but I've always left the printing to the PC in the office. But now I've got another Mac and have transfered everything.
On the PC it was simple, I'd click print & select 2 copies with the layout I wanted...

Sorry if this question has already been asked...but any help would be great,
Many thanks,
Kirk.

Click on the popup menu currently set to "Layout", and select "Preview". This will give you access to the application specific print settings.

There's an option at the bottom of the print dialog to set the number of images. Set it to 2 and check the "Print 2 copies per page" option. You might have to change the page orientation, depending on your source image's orientation.

Glad to help!

To tell the truth, I didn't know Preview had that option - I was looking for a 2-up option that I've used in other apps. In any event, if you are in a different app, check its specific settings for 2-up or equivalent.
