You can find the Corel PaintShop Pro user Guide under the Help menu as in most programs, this should should assist you in learning how to export at any size you want: try the Sharing section of the User Guide. When I read over the information quickly it looked much more complex than what I do in Lightroom. Here is something from the User Guide about saving photos (below). Just provide the printer with what he/she is asking for as they know what they want for this particular use and after that you can get into detailed discussions about 72ppi and 300 ppi or whatever other ppi people want to save or export at. The sharing of photos seemed fairly complex in this program and I could not find anything on just exporting them out, but you'll have to read much more carefully than me. The User Guide is over 800 pages long! Are you using this program to actually paint the photos somewho, thus changing the way they look? I'd be interested in seeing one if that is the case. I've downloaded the trial version to see if I want to use it, but I can say that Lightroom sure seems a lot easier. Good luck.

This is just total BS. Printer dpi has nothing to do with input ppi. A printer will print at its resolution regardless of input. The printer doesn't care about pixels. This whole discussion makes me wonder if people even understand what pixels are.
A pixel is the smallest piece of information that is identifiable in a picture. That's it! You can blow up 1 camera pixel to fill a computer screen and it is 1900 x 1080 screen pixels, but it is still just 1 camera pixel.
Your printer prints at whatever dpi and your display shows at whatever ppi, but none of them have anything to do with photo resolution.
