Hello, I am trying to help a friend set up a folder so that whenever an image is added to the folder, it automatically prints it.

In Automator, I set up a folder action and included "Print Finder Items". Now, whenever I add an image to the folder, the print queue will come up, but it is giving me an error of "incompatible media size." However, when I double click on that folder, highlight the image file that was just added, and press ⌘P, it prints the image with no problem. Isn't pressing ⌘P in that finder window essentially doing the same thing that I set Automator to do? If so, why am I getting two different results?

Thanks for your time.
