To optimize images

For the best transfer speed vs quality, resample images to the required print size at 200dpi.

If the program will not allow a larger print size to be selected, resample the image to the required print size at 200dpi.
If the program hangs loading an image the DPI is too high, resample to the required print size at 200dpi. (Version 2.1.0.70 and higher fixes this problem)

How to extract prints from tubes
On a large clean dry flat surface, (1) CAREFULLY remove the taped bubble wrapped ends from the tube then (2) slide bubble wrapped prints from the tube. (3) Gently bring the bubble wrap out of both ends of the prints, then without crushing the prints (4) holding the rolled prints, CAREFULLY remove the two packing tapes from the bubble wrap.
