photo printing

Pictures on paper

Photo printing is the process of producing physical copies of photographs, whether from digital files or film negatives.

The term covers everything from home inkjet prints to professional lab services: I need to pick up my photo printing order.

Photo printing has declined as digital display has become the default way to view images, but persists for albums, framing, and archival purposes.
