  Step 1:  Take Control of Photos

When you download a photo from a Web site or when you get a photo from a friend or relative by e-mail, its all well and good to look at it on your monitor. But to print it out you'll have to take control of it first.
  Step 2:  Save Downloaded Photo

Open a Report
When you download a photo from the Web, you get a dialog box asking if you want to open the file or save it to a disk. Opt for saving. In the next window, name the file and designate where it will be stored. Choose to save it as a bmp, gif or jpg file. A bmp format file is very large, but retains true color fidelity. GIF makes for the smallest file, but sacrifices a good deal of color. JPG (or JPEG) makes for files that are larger than gifs, but without noticeably compromising color quality.
  Step 3:  Save An Attached Photo

Open a Report
When you try to open a photo attached to an e-mail, you get a dialog box asking if you want to open the file or save it to a disk. Opt for saving. In the next window that opens name the file and designate where it will be stored. Save it as a bmp, gif or jpg file. A bmp format file is very large, but retains true color fidelity. GIF makes for the smallest file, but sacrifices a good deal of color. JPG (or JPEG) makes for files that are larger than gifs, but without compromising color.
  Step 4:  Choose An Editor

Open a Report
If you have a photo or graphics editing program, start it. If you don't, Microsoft's Paintbrush, which is a part of Windows and accessible from Start/Programs/Accessories, will do.
  Step 5:  Open And Print

Open the photo file you created and then print it using your graphics editing program
