Get a bigger printer and get some help spelling while you're at it.

Why not size the image up in PS to 22x22 then using grids and guides cut it into pieces and print each one out. It should all go on 6 A4 sheets. Wayne |

I have run into something similar to what you are talking about, just on a smaller scale. Turned out it was that my ppi of my image (400 ppi) was to large for my printer, as my printer was set for a max of 300 dpi for printing. I resized my image to 300 ppi, and reprinted it.......problem solved

yeah that's right, a 300dpi image looks 4x bigger onscreen because screens are only 75dpi. So if you have a 300dpi printer it will be the right size |

I agree. I'd probably go with 9 "8.5x11" if you're Canadian or American.
place two vertical guides to divide it into thirds, same horizontal, and you'll hav ninths. With snap on, it'll be easy to crop or slice into 9 pieces.
