Printing multiple images - there must be a simple way...?

Hi guys

I've got loads of images to print that are all different sizes and I want to print them onto one large roll and cut them out individually.

Is there an easy way of saying - here's the pictures, organise them onto one page, put a small gap round each image (for cutting out) and print them.

I will need to be able to specify the dpi of the document I am printing on and also manage the colour profile etc.

A RIP is the obvious answer but they cost hundreds and I'm hoping for a free option.

I've got Photoshop and Bridge CS5 but I'm not finding the option in there (I'm sure it exists though).

Thanks!

I'm not sure it will do exactly what you want but irfanview has some powerful printing options and might be worth a look

File> Automate> Contact Sheet

Not done this for a while, but I think you select your images and it puts them on sheets.

Not sure about selecting dpi etc. but I'm sure theres a way! HTH

Thanks for the posts guys.

Irfanview doesn't seem to have what I need, and the old process of using automate>contact sheet seemed to have been moved to Bridge. That gives the option of outputting to PDF or web and I can't seem to make it do what I need outputting to PDF.
