Pixelated image upon printing
Oct 30, 2013 12:14:10 #
Photos taken were set for auto and they look great on the camera and my laptop. However, when I print the photo, it seems very pixelated and not sharp. Any suggestions? Have tried resetting my printer properties, but printed image still not sharp.

If you upload again but with "Download Original" checked it will be easier to see what is going on.

If reading correctly, ISO - Auto Settings show High ISO NR as Norm; image quality set JPEG (fine). I am a novice with DSLR cameras and my D7100. Any recommendations would be sincerely appreciated. I still need to learn how to properly use the various settings compared to shooting in 'auto'.

what searcher was asking was for you to please repost the picture. But this time click on the "Store Orginal" box. This will allow use see what your camera is doing. Thank you.
PS it also allows use to down load a much larger file so we can see most bestest.

Photo is fine -
Size 3600x2400 pixels
Resolution (as recorded in Exif) 300dpi
sRGB
1/125 sec, f/5.6 ISO 280
Should print 12" x 8" easily
more questions
What size are you printing out?
What software are you outputting from?
What kind of paper are you printing on?

I think the skunk might be in the printer. As Searcher said, your numbers as good.
Make of printer, and are you using manufacture Ink or Aftermarket. And have you printed other files (other then from that camera)
I have found it is often just a matter of running a clean heads program on the printer. They will sometimes become dirty or slightly clogged. The cleaning is a program on the printer and will use allot of ink.

I think after all these years you should do a little PM. It might need to be aligned and clean. I would start on page 96 of this manual. Then page 102.

You need a good quality file to start with. You do not say what camera you are using, the software you process the file in, except it was taken in auto. You have to look at the file first, expand it, and examine it to see what it looks like. You are doing everything backwards. Start with a good file and you will get a good print.

cthahn: You are getting there - this is possibly the best post you have made. Well done.
I am not going to be picky and say "look at the picture - it's fine", (which I just did), but I think you are probably quite knowledgeable, why don't you try sharing some of that knowledge with the rest of us?
You could choose a picture from your own library, post it and explain how and why you took it. That will be of interest to all, and I will try to keep some of your critics off your back.

I apologise for diverting the topic a little, but this had to be said by someone.
