How to disable photo printing wizard ??

[WTVA]

Okay here the deal user has Tif files that when they try to print the dang photo printing wizard pops up each time any way around this ?? is there a way to disable it or maybe do I have to re-associate the file type to another application ?

Thanks

what program is the file type associated with now? sounds to me like the photo print wizard is program specific. i would just reassociate the file type with another program. i believe that the default is the windows fax/viewer.

that disables the imager completely - I'd like to (and WTVA) is also looking to just disable the Photo Printing WIZARD only, but keep the viewer. Anyone found a way to do this?

Your best bet would be to assign the file association completely for .tif .tiff files to the application you want for viewing, printing, editing, etc.

Although for viewing, you might consider replacing the native handler with this excellent freeware:

Thx for the tip - im real close to just using photo editor to do this, but i hate not being able to disable this kinda stupid integrated stuff I can't find anything on the net either, so it's looking like photo editor it is.
