Does this still work? Cpw comments say it's inactive.

I ordered one hour ago. It took a while for paypal to go through, for whatever reason. And in the beginning, I could put it in my cart, but after I cruised the website, it wouldn't let me go back to my cart. I had to start over.

Just tried it, still working for me.

Then enter the code at checkout.

Just curious what do you do with 8.5x11? I can't think of a reason I would print in that size.

I use that size to give away to family and for test prints. They love 8×10 and these are easily trimmed for that.

I have no immediate plans for it. But I do have a grand baby coming in June, so I will find something to do with it. Even if I have to trim it down.

Ugh I can't order since I'm in Canada even though I have a US shipping address. anyone want to help me out and have it shipped to my US address for me?

Make it Lustre and I'm in.

Getting an error that it is unavailable now when I'm trying to check out.

Really? 8X10 is pretty much THE standard size for matting and framing portraits, and it works great for lots of other subjects when you don;t want to print huge.

Just curious...I don't print at home. I assumed there was 8x10 format paper. Never looked it into it. So I guess you crop to 8x10, print to 8.5x11 and cut to size. Learned something new today...

i often print 2 5x7 prints per page

or you could do 9 2x3 wallet size
or 4 3.5x5
or many other combinations

it's nice to have the option to do a border too for framed prints

Close, but actually you rarely print on paper the size of the final matted viewing, you print on larger to have a border for the matte to hold in place.

So you use the full 8.5"x11" paper, print a little larger than 8"x10" for "bleed" and then matte it with an 8"x10" opening in an 12" x 14" frame with a 2" matte border.

Example;

And yes, for color printing at home, there is no 8x10 paper. For that you would need real photo paper, and a dark room!
