Printing out 500 pages of Art History slides can be a real hassle, both for making handy flashcards, and also for the people who run the printers (Each color cartridge does cost upwards of $200!) Here are some relatively painless ways to print out multiple slides per page that don’t involve laboring over an unwieldy Microsoft Word document.

Windows Users

  1. Download all of the slides you wish to print out into an empty folder on your desktop. (If you hold down ALT while clicking on the link to the picture, the file will download to your desktop. Just drag all of these files to an empty folder)
  2. Open the folder – select all of the image files, then go to File -> Print. The “Photo Printing Wizard” should come up.
  3. Click on the “Next” button at the bottom of the window. You should now see thumbnails of all the slides. Click on the “Select All” button, then the “Next” button.
  4. Select the printer you want to use – lw-jesup-maindesk-color – then click “Next”
  5. In the “Avaliable Layouts” menu, scroll down and select a layout that puts at least 3 or 4 slides on one page. Click “Next” to begin printing.
