Four ways to get a digital photo print from your computer or digital camera memory card.

Now that you’ve taken loads of digital pictures with your digital camera, what are the best options for digital photo printing?

Here are the most common options. With a little information, you’ll be able to pick the right one for you, to start with.

1. Take your digital photos to a local store for digital image processing.
This option is easy, less expensive than using your own digital printer, and gives you professional prints on high quality digital photo paper. All stores that print photos will take your digital photos in most format: digital camera memory card CD, DVD, floppy disk, or USB drive.

2. Use a do-it-yourself photo kiosk.
You can use a digital printing kiosk in your local department store. This is a do-it-yourself method where you insert your digital camera memory card or CD in the kiosk and follow the on-screen directions to determine which digital photos you want to print.

3. Use a digital photo print online service.
An online digital photo developing site allows you to upload your digital photos to a secure site, from the comfort of your own home, day or night: Some online digital image processing sites have you download software first. Once the digital images are online, you can then choose the quantity and size, and some online digital photo developer sites even let you edit the digital photo online. Sites like Walmart Photo Center let you store the digital prints online, so you can come back at a later time to print more of your digital photos. Once the digital photos are printed, you can either pick them up at a local store or have them mailed directly to you.

4. Print your photos on your own digital printer.
With the right digital photo printer, photo inks, and digital photo paper, you have the option of printing quality prints as you need them.
