Think about it... say you have a 6mp camera, just because the math is easier that way! (G) That's 3000x2000. At 300DPI, that's 10" by 6.6". So your 3x5 print is not using anywhere near all those pixels. You will find that most modern printer drivers don't really need your help. You tell the printer what size you want, feed it paper and ink, and the printer will handle the rest. Even on large prints, 13x19 or 17x22, it is very rare that you have to mess with anything. Tell the computer and printer what you want, and they will handle the rest.<br><b>References : </b><br> If you are using anything more than 4MP, the printer is throwing away most of your image anyway when you print that small.
