I always export my photos from iPhoto and print in OS 9 since i have all the settings and everything set up there and my printer's driver is more full featured but i tried in OS X today to print and i couldnt find where to select a 4 x 6 paper size.... i want to select 4 X 6 photo paper.... and i cant find it... cant find anything....



am i missing it or is it not really there at all?

    Printer drivers in X seem less full featured than those in 9. At MW we spoke with someone at Epson. He explained that in OS 9 the printer driver is allowed to talk directly to the printer. In X the printer driver is supposed to select from the options the OS provides. This is why X drivers are missing many features that comparable OS 9 drivers have. He also said that Apple is doing a lot of work in this area and that there should be some changes coming by April or so.
