Im trying to find some way to print as per the title, but maintain the proper image size. The only ways i can find to do it are for printing photos at standard photo sizes but thats no good..

Anyone have any ideas please?

Cheers!
 
Your question is confusing. You ask to maintain the original image size, but go on to say the standard image size is no good. Are you referring to aspect ratio? If so, there are two ways to go about it:

One is going to be checking the DPI (dots per inch). An image will usually default to 72 DPI but the printer will default to 300 DPI (examples), which means your image will appear 3x smaller than it really is. Have a play with those settings.

Then, create a table in your word processing application and simply insert the image in there. You can then adjust the scale to your liking and put as many versions on the same page as you'd like.
 
Ive tried photo editing software but what i mean is I only have the option to print 1 image to 1 page, or multiple images to 1 page but in what i assume are standard photo sizes, not the size of the image I want to print..

I tried word but I couldn't figure out how to scale it to the right size as i need it pixel perfect.. Guessing my best choice is to persevere with that, but when i bring up the object formating box and enter the size it SHOULD be, on print preview it shows it as much bigger than it should be..
 
Why don't you just use Photoshop and set it up on an A4 page on screen, then copy and paste your image as many times as you need prior to printing. That's the easiest way I would've thought.
 
Still not sure where the problem lies. Using word you just insert your picture and drag the corner of it to resize it to fit your needs.

Because dragging it doesnt allow for pixel perfect sizes.. Im afraid my judgement simply isnt sufficient to get it dead right. As stated above in word, setting the sizes doesnt seem to result in a printout at the right size.. I dont know why. No worries tho i will try the photoshop route.
