Printing photos with Shutterfly is simple and convenient. Start by uploading your images from your computer, phone, or social media accounts. Our user-friendly platform allows you to easily edit, crop, and enhance your photos before printing. Once you're satisfied with your edits, choose from a range of print sizes and finishes. Our professional printing ensures vibrant colors and sharp details, giving you prints you'll be proud to display or share with loved ones.
To help you place the perfect photo print order, our tools will help recommend the best photo print size for your photos when ordering. This photo size recommendation corresponds to the original format of your photos and helps minimize cropping. Of course, you can also choose your own format and decide which section of your picture you want to have printed using our editing tools.
Once we receive your order, it takes us a few days to make it just right for you. Because every order is custom, it can take up to 3 business days to process your order. Next, we send orders out for shipping. It can take up to 7 days after processing to receive your order, depending on the shipping method you select. Snapfish offers four convenient ways to ship your order: lowest price shipping, ground, 2-day, and overnight. Details on these options can be found here.
We offer both matte and glossy paper options. Glossy paper is our most popular option with a smooth, shiny finish and vibrant colors. Glossy is perfect when you want sharp images and are especially good for colorful portraits or landscapes. Matte paper is perfect for images with more muted tones as it minimizes shine, and is often preferred by professionals for more detailed images. When handled, matte paper will not show smudged fingerprints, and if you are planning to display your image using a glass frame we recommend a matte finish as it reduces glare. Whatever photo paper finish you choose, your photos will be printed on professional grade photo paper with archival quality inks so you receive high quality photo prints that will last a lifetime.
At Snapfish our top priority is to offer our prints at a great value to you. Our photo prints come in many different print sizes and formats so cost varies depending on the product you choose. We also offer standard ground, rush and international shipping options, which are calculated based on the number and size of prints in your final order.
Once you upload your photos to Snapfish, our photos editing tools allow you to automatically correct red eyes, photo orientation and color as well as enhance your photos by adding a tint, convert to black and white, manually crop or zoom, or rotate the image orientation. Find out more about .
Yes, it is possible to print photos in black and white. We have different color filters that you can easily apply to your images. Once you have added your chosen images to the prints builder, click the EDIT button which can be found directly underneath the image. Next click the FILTERS icon and then select the black and white option. Finally click DONE EDITING and your black and white photo is now ready to print. Need further guidance?

Other than for Windows in Ubuntu there are no fancy utilities provided from printer manufacturers to print photos. I am aware of Gnome Photo Printer and of Photoprint, the first being easy to handle, the latter having more options. However I wonder if there are any other or maybe even better alternatives (including plugins) to perform the following tasks:
After half a pack of ink cartridges and half a pack of photo paper cards I am getting tired of testing. At least Gimp and Picasa looked promising but both don't keep their promise when it comes to printing. I'd already be happy to quickly print a few photos with EOG if bug #80220 was fixed - but it's still on "wishlist".
On the other hand, and though this is not an answer to your question, but eventually, and hopefully, it will be. There's a project called DarkTable, which is being developed as a substitute of Lightroom. The print interface, however, is still in the list of future features, but it's promising. More info:
Nations Photo Lab makes great-looking prints (in sizes ranging from 4 by 4 inches to 30 by 45 inches) and ships them in well-thought-out cardboard packaging that prevented our photos from being damaged en route.
I also served as the senior technical editor for Popular Photography for its last decade in print and was in charge of maintaining and updating its testing procedures. During that time I tested most of the cameras covered by the magazine. I oversaw various feature stories about online printing and kept up to date on the equipment used for commercial photo printing by services of all sizes.
Wirecutter has been recommending online photo printing services since 2016. From the beginning, our goal has been to point you toward convenient, easy-to-use options that deliver high-quality prints to your home and let you choose from a variety of print sizes and papers.
We ordered prints in 4-by-6, 5-by-5, 8-by-10, and 11-by-14 sizes, compared them to reference prints we made on our pick for the best photo printer (the Epson SureColor P600 at the time), and conducted a test panel of several Wirecutter colleagues with varying levels of photography experience. The panelists identified their top two choices and noted their least-favorite prints when presented with six sets of prints made from identical image files.
As you build your order, you can reconfigure the paper types; add options for mounting on foamcore, gatorboard, matboard, or styrene; and select sizes ranging from pre-perforated sets of eight wallet-size images up to 30-by-45-inch prints, though not all sizes are available for all paper options. For example, you can get a 30-by-45 only in a luster finish, but the other papers go as large as 20 by 40 inches, and metal prints are limited to 24 by 36 inches.
Gift packaging is available. Whether you want to send prints to loved ones or to clients, Nations will let you ship prints in gift boxes, complete with ribbon, with their Boutique Packaging option, which costs an extra $6.84 as of this writing. For $17.75 more you can create Custom Presentation Boxes, and add images or a logo for a special or professional look.
If you create images with careful attention to composition, this forced cropping is likely a dealbreaker. EZprints and RitzPix, for example, offer a smartphone-friendly print size at a 4:3 aspect ratio, and Printique and Nations Photo Lab give you the option to print your image uncropped, no matter the aspect-ratio mismatch. As of this writing, Mpix provides neither of those options.
Bay Photo offers small print sizes optimized for smartphone photos, along with sturdy packaging, but in our tests its print output was decidedly middling. In our unlabeled print test, participants rarely made it a first or last choice in side-by-side comparisons with our other contenders, usually slotting it as a reasonable second choice.
