[Blank section in the middle of printing]

Hi,

Noticed a few posts here regarding partial image prints.  I am having the same issue. 

I print full page images and all that prints out is a strip of the image along the left edge. 

 

I did have a windows update 2 days ago.

I can print these images using other programs.

 

I am able to successfully print images from paint.net by setting the image resolution to 96 instead of my usual 300.  Think some type of buffer problem?

Thanks for any help.

Wow!! Finally!! Been looking for this for over a year. I'm a neophite with PDN even after using (abusing) it for over a year. I have been trying to create this look for the whole time. Now greedy as I am ...... hoping you want to be able to take 6 colours (say red blue green yellow white and black) and do the same thing. Take a photo and reduce it down to 6 basic colours.

Great job davidf !!

Sarkut,

Thank you for the info and what you describe sounds like exactly what I need. Unfortunately I am such a newbie I can't figure out what you are suggesting other than pixelate. Would it be too much to ask to see an example here showing the other steps? Appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance.

Pixelating simply to reduce the number of dots that you have to render in the painting is a good first step.

You can then reproduce each pixelated block as a four quadrant rendering in the painting.

Red, Green, Blue and Gray.

Pixelate the original, then separate it into four layers by color channel, plus gray-scale.

Transfer a color pick from each layer to each of the four quadrants.

Extract Channel

Thanks all.

I've tried all you have suggestions and I'm still not getting the result I want. This tells me that I didn't ask the right question so I'll try again. I want to be able to take a photograph and if i zoom in all I will see are pixels of 6-8 basic colours of my choosing(no shadings just the colours I choose). For example, just red green blue white and black. If I zoom out it will look like the photo. The reason I want this is so that I can take the output and use it to make a painting of just dots close together. Does that make sense to anyone?

I would like to be able to pixelate a photo but have the output be comprised of only 6 - 8 colours. Is there a technique or effect I can use? Any help greatly appreciated.

Sorry, posted to the wrong area .... no way I can see to delete.
