It’s easy, and you don’t need any special photo software.

  2. Click the pictures you want to print as thumbnails. (To select more than one, hold down the Ctrl key as you click, or you can select a range of photos by shift-clicking.)
  3. On the toolbar, click Print.
  4. In the Print Pictures dialog box, select the printer, paper size and type, and the number of copies you want to print, and then click Contact sheet in the list of print sizes. You can also print to a PDF file.
