Options For Printing Photos Taken On Your Smartphone

More than a billion smartphones are shipped each year by manufacturers as smartphones have become a necessary companion for almost everyone. One thing everyone does with a smartphone is take photos. It’s easy and you don’t need to worry about space, thanks to the countless cloud storage services.

Digital photos are a good way to keep memories but some photos need to be seen in print. Printed photos also make for a great gift. You can use photos on your phone to create personalised greeting cards, photo books, wall art, and other such things.

How Do You Print Photos Taken on Your Smartphone?

There are several options including:

1. Printing at home
2. Instore photo printing
3. Online printing service

Printing at Home

Today, you can buy small-sized printers that have been specifically designed for printing photos. Just connect your phone to the printer and it will print out regular-sized photos in no time. You can also use a regular printer that allows photo printing. For using a regular printer, you will probably need to use a separate computer as not all printers allow printing directly from a smartphone.

However, printing at home is not cheap. First, you need to have a printer at home, and not everybody keeps a printer, especially one capable of printing good-quality photos. Investing in a dedicated photo printer makes sense only for people who like to print a lot of photos. There is also the expense of paper as photos require special paper. Also, printer ink isn’t cheap. There is also the issue of being able to print a maximum of A4-sized photos as that is what most home printers are capable of printing.

Use a Nearby Printing Store

Look around and you might be able to find a print shop nearby. If you have a reliable and reputable print shop nearby, this is one of the most convenient options for photo printing. These shops offer a large range of printing services in terms of materials, designs, and novelty gifts.

You just need to take your phone with you and order the photos you want printed. These stores have huge printers that can quickly print out as many copies as you want, and you can get photos printed on paper, mugs, canvas and a variety of other materials. A big negative of these stores is the high cost, especially when you want to print only a limited number of photos.

Online Printing Service

One of the most hassle-free ways to print photos from your smartphone is to use an online printing service. Photoland offers both in-store printing as well as an online photo printing service. One of the biggest advantages of using an online photo printing service is that you can do it from the comfort of your own home. Just download the photos on your computer and edit them as much as you want. If you do not have access to a computer, you can also use your smartphone for ordering prints.

The only thing you need to do is upload or email the photos you want to be printed and order the number of prints you want. You will get all the options available for in-store printing including quality of paper, size of the photo, and other such things. Don’t worry about the quality as Photoland technicians ensure colour correction, contrast correction, brightness correction, and cropping for each image before printing.

The biggest advantage of using an online printing service is that you can order them from anywhere and receive them in your mail in just a few days.
