Hi everyone!!

 

Hopefully somebody can help me as i am totally lost!

 

i recently bought an edible printer (canon) and i was really excited to use it except the software that came free with it is rubbish (or i just dont know how to use it)

 

I am trying to get different images on 1 sheet of wafer paper. i manage to do 1 single image but i cant get them to be all different images.

 

can anybody help me please, i am currently (trying) to use the Create A Cake software (im in the UK)

 

Any help apprecated!!

 

Thanks in advance xxx

One of the ways I get different pictures on the same paper is to use Microsoft word and import the pictures to the word document then print it out. 

I have a Canon printer for edible images the software that came with it has a program called "my image garden"

If you have that in your Canon software open it up then select the layout that you want. This will open up a new photo layout under "my art" to the left of the screen. Open up the pictures you want to move onto this layout and just click and drag to the layout under "my art" once you get all the pictures dragged to the layout, open it back up and the images will be displayed above the layout then just click and drag it down into the layout.

I hope that isn't to confusing to follow.

 

My Canon is an MG5520

 

Good luck! I am sure someone else will be able to tell you exactly how to do what you need to do.

If you use a document type program like Word, you may notice colors being off.  We offer a free program for our customers, so I am unfamiliar with other programs.  Good luck!

Hi,

Its not software it is an online program for our customers.  So once you ordered from us, once the product is shipped you have access to it by signing in to our website at www.icingimages.com  You can view the program at www.icingimages.com/iprint however you don't have access to it.It is designed for use with our Premium Icing Sheets, however if you have another brand you can purchase a license to use it for any brand by entering the specifications.

Please let me know if I can help further.

Thanks!
