Key notes
While the Photo Viewer is somehow a thing of the past now, it was a big deal back in the Windows 7 and 8 days, used by millions across the world.
It did not make the leap in Windows 10 whose built-in photo viewer is now called simply: the Photos app.
Nevertheless, if you upgraded from Windows 7 or Windows 8.1, you might still have it and it might be worth knowing that other nostalgic users have been reporting printing problems with the Windows Photo Viewer application.
Our recommendation? Install a better-performing third-party app from the Microsoft Store or desktop programs like IrfanView, XnView, orAdobe Photoshopthat are more feature-rich than the basic default tool.
Speaking about improvements in the photo viewers department, your best betis definitely Adobe Photoshop if you want to always print crisp-looking images with perfect colors.
How do I change Windows Photo Viewer?
Install Adobe Photoshop
When it comes to photo editing and photo viewers, you simply cannot beat the world’s best imaging and graphic design software.
With Photoshop you can crop, remove objects, process, retouch, combine photos, integrate color, effects, and achieve stunning print-ready images every time.
Photoshop can send your images to a wide range of devices to be printed onto paper directly or converted to a positive or negative image on film.
Simple images use one color in one level of gray while photographs require various color tones that must be printed on separate master plates, one for each color. Photoshop even allows you to adjust how the various plates are generated.
Let’s quickly review its impressive printing focusedkey features:
