Class Summary

Date & Time:

Featuring:
All you need to know about printing, from setup to papers to troubleshooting!
Skill Level:
Paul Nelson
Instructor:
Paul Nelson

If you own a printer, are considering purchasing one, or even just want to learn a little bit more about the printing process, this class is for you!

In this class, Hunt’s Photo Educator and printing enthusiast Paul Nelson will walk you through the basics of Digital Printing, including:

• Basic computer settings for print on both Mac and PC

• The advantages (and disadvantages) of printing using different programs for printing (and why Adobe Lightroom Classic is one of the best options)

• The differences between printer models

• Color management tools and settings

• Editing Suggestions

• Troubleshooting (Paul has extensive knowledge of this!)

This class also focuses on printing using Lightroom specifically. Being able to print from Lightroom allows you to complete all of your tasks specifically in one rather than multiple programs. Even if you do not own or use Lightroom, the concepts within this class are fairly global and these concepts can be translated to other programs. We will also discuss printing using these other programs.

We LOVE printing! If you are at all curious about why printing is the most important thing in the world, join this class and you’ll soon figure it out!
