Print photos from your iPhone without unexpected cropping
Choose the original image and inspect its paper preview before printing. A photo's proportions may differ from the selected paper, causing borders or cropped edges.
App used in this guide: Smart Printer ↗
Before you begin
Use an AirPrint-compatible printer with the correct photo paper and tray settings. Open the full-resolution photo instead of a small message thumbnail.
Step by step
- Open the photo printing workflow in Smart Printer and select the image.
- Choose Print and select the printer and available paper options.
- Inspect the preview, especially faces, dates and content near the edges; print one copy first.
Check the result
Compare the first print with the preview before making multiple copies. Borderless support, paper sizes and color output depend on the printer.
If it does not work
If the image is soft, use the original file. Enlarging a compressed image does not restore detail. If a required size is unavailable, check the printer's supported paper and settings.
