When I scan/copy and print a photo, say 6x4, the resulting images are printed about one third larger than the original. Any idea how I can correct this ?

I have an epson V350 photo scanner and an Epson R300 printer.

Thanks.

When you have saved the .jpg file, go out of the scanner programme and open the file by right-clicking on it and choosing 'open with > microsoft office picture manager'.
In this programme, at top right of screen you will see 'edit' - click that - a menu opens up on the right of screen - choose resize.
Then you can choose the size you want, save and you're done.
