With Lightroom 3 Beta having just been released, the first thing that most people will do – as I did – is to look and see if the features that you’ve always wanted in the program have been added. One of the areas that Lightroom 2 fell a little short on in my book was the Print module. I wanted to be able to print with a colored background without having to import a background to use as a Identity Plate to achieve the effect and I wanted to be able to assemble a single printed sheet incorporating multiple images but I didn’t want them to have to always be the same size.

Guest Blogger Tim Grey: Ink in Bright Areas of Print
By Jon Canfield The latest model printers, like the HP DesignJet Z3200 and the Photosmart Pro B9180 , are capable of creating prints that last over 200 years thanks to the formulation of pigment inks and the coatings on the papers we print to.

One problem with inkjet prints is the tendency to scratch easily.
