Hello. Lucid Puppy is fast becoming my main OS. Apart from a scanner problem, which I am not too bothered about, the only other problem I have is to view and print photos. It has Viewnior Image Viewer which is fine for viewing photos but you cant print from it! I wish to view photos and print them on my printer. Thanks. Paul

You can view in MtPaint
Has print option in File->Actions->

Will probably need this info also.

What about printing photos by attaching them to a write libreoffice document? You can scale it, manipulate it, and print it at the beginning of the page o where you want without waste of photo-paper. I use to do so.

You can always try loading them in whatever web-browser you have installed, and print from there.

I also have IrfanView installed, through Wine (yeah, I know, a Windows program :) ), which does a decent job of printing images, at least in my experience. (But I wouldn't recommend installing Wine just for that...)
