Print Job
The Print module also has controls for opening the Print Setup dialog box (Windows) or Page Setup dialog box
(Mac OS) to set the print orientation and paper size, and for opening the Print Setup dialog box (Windows) or Print
dialog box (Mac OS) to choose a printer and specify printer driver settings.
Note: Although it's possible to set the Scale value in the printer's Advanced Options dialog box (Windows) or Page Setup
dialog box (Mac OS), it's best to leave it at 100%. Changing the scale in these printer dialog boxes applies a second scaling
operation to any scaling you set in Lightroom, so your photos may not print at the size you expect.
