How to print passport photos
One 4×6 sheet prints several photos — 2×2 in for the US, or 35×45 mm, 50×70 mm, and 33×48 mm for other countries. Cheap, fast, and print-ready.
Option A — Pharmacy (recommended)
- Export a 4×6 layout for your document size.
- Upload to CVS, Walgreens, Costco, or Walmart photo.
- Order glossy 4×6 print (~$0.30–$0.50).
- Pick up in 1 hour. Cut along the photo edges.
Option B — Home printer
- Use glossy photo paper (4×6 or letter).
- Print at 300 DPI, "actual size", no auto-fit.
- Let ink dry 10 minutes before cutting.
- Use a paper cutter for clean edges.
