Epson RX-510 Multi Function Printer - a question
I've had an RX510 MFP for quite a while now and to be honest - while I like WHAT it does - I don't like HOW I have to do it. What I'm referring to specifically is when I want to print a photo the only way I can get it to print at appropriate quality (ie - not look like cr*p) I have to use their bundled Photoquicker software. This is painful as I then have to sift through my iphoto directories to locate the image(s) I want or alternatively, copy the pics into a folder on my desktop and then access that folder from photoquicker. When I get into Photoquicker I then have to go through a convulated process that involves slightly zooming out on the photo as photoquicker always cuts a portion of the photo off.

I don't print many photos from the printer these days as going to a store is much cheaper/convenient than the ink from the printer but I was wondering if anyone else who has this printer has another option that they use?

Thanks

Chris

Use iPhoto's print capabilities. They are far superior to the Epson software. Once you have figured out the setting that work best for you you can save it as a printing pre-set.
