Windows 10 and all recent printer software (about which I am aware) depends on print options being set up / adjusted within the application / program you are using to submit the job to the printer. Open File Explorer > Navigate to Folder > Right-Click on photo(s) > Print

(That) I am correct about File Explorer and its ability to support the print dialog (in Windows 10).

This means that when you Open the image / photo file, it opens using either the Photos application or the Windows Photo Viewer software.

Image / photo files on your computer are associated with either Photos or Windows Photo Viewer.

You have not very recently upgraded your Operating System to Windows 10.

You have installed the Full Feature Software for your printer and that software is functional.

Pictures File is a Folder on your computer.

In other words, definitions and descriptions matter.

I am making some assumptions here - I do not know precisely what you are doing. How can I get my print dialog box back, so I can once again choose the settings I desire for each individual print job, instead of the default settings always being used. When I go to print a photo from my pictures file, I used to get a print dialog box after selecting the photo(s) to print, giving me the options of what size paper, what size photo, which paper tray, paper orientation (landscape or portrait).etc.Īll of a sudden, out of nowhere, when I click to print a photo, it automatically starts printing based on the default settings, most of the time NOT what I want.
