How does Qimage compare?
Compare Qimage Ultimate with Lightroom Classic and Canon Professional Print & Layout—from automatic layouts and saved jobs to print quality and scheduled printer maintenance.
Change the print size. Keep the sharpness you love.
One setting. A whole range of sizes.
A large image printed small. A phone photo enlarged to 20 × 30 inches. Qimage adapts its interpolation and sharpening to the image and the print size, keeping perceived sharpness consistent.
Set the sharpness you like, then let Qimage do the calculations. No separate upscaling step. No sharpening each print size by hand.
Natural-looking detail, with non-neural interpolation and adaptive print sharpening.
Hover, tap or select a label. Look for halos along the railings with traditional USM.
An on-screen comparison; visibility in a finished print varies. DFS is also available in the image editor when one photo needs extra sharpening.
Less setup. More printing.
Print multiple photos. Mix sizes on one page.
Exact sizes. Automatic placement.
Choose 4x6, 5x7, 8x10 or enter exact dimensions in inches or millimeters. Mix different photos and sizes in one job; Qimage arranges them automatically for straightforward, edge-to-edge cuts.
Drag, position and align prints manually whenever you want. Resize any print and Qimage automatically rearranges the job across pages as needed. Save layouts and named print sizes for next time.
No need to build a grid of cells before you start.
The paper. The profile. The layout. Even the printer-driver settings. Qimage automatically saves every printed job so you can return to it without piecing everything together from memory.
Save printer setups, too. Your paper, profile, driver settings, print sizes, cut marks and more, ready to load together.
Reprint, or make a change from a setup you already trust.
Confidence before you click Print
Color-managed photo printing.
Color management. Both sides, in sync.
Choose an ICC profile or let the printer manage color. Driver AI automatically sets the color-management mode in supported Canon and Epson drivers to match.
It corrects mismatched settings to prevent double profiling or accidentally switching all color management off. You can also deliberately choose fully unmanaged output for profiling targets.
Part of Qimage’s optional AI assistance. You stay in control.
Keep your printer ready. Even between print days.
Schedule purge sheets to give your printer regular use. Or schedule nozzle checks on supported Canon and Epson printers to exercise all nozzles and spot missing nozzles before an important print.
Print occasionally? Use either, or schedule both, to help prevent inkjet clogs between printing sessions.
For prevention and checking nozzle health; an existing clog may still need cleaning.
Simple for everyday prints. Ready for the ambitious ones.
Borders, mats & finishing
Layer borders, create uneven photo mats, add annotations and floating text, or design a greeting card.
Quick fixes, right here
Adjust curves, levels, saturation, contrast and fill light. Crop, fix a minor blemish, or give one image extra sharpening without leaving Qimage. Every edit is non-destructive: change or remove it anytime.
Canvas, rolls & wall art
Mirrored borders, canvas shrinkage compensation and automatic roll length. Go bigger with multi-panel, triptych and poster printing.
Qimage prints through Windows printer drivers, so you can use Canon, Epson, HP and other printer models with a compatible Windows driver. Automatic control of driver color settings is available for supported Canon and Epson photo printers.
Can I print different photos at exact sizes on one page?
Yes. Choose 4x6, 5x7, 8x10 or enter custom dimensions in inches or millimeters for each photo. Qimage automatically arranges mixed sizes across the pages needed. You can also position prints manually, and resizing a print automatically rearranges the job as needed.
How does Qimage improve photo print quality?
Qimage adapts interpolation and print sharpening to the image and print size, helping keep perceived sharpness consistent from small prints to enlargements. Color management lets you use an ICC profile for your printer, paper and ink, or let the printer manage color.
Do I need to change photo editors?
Keep using Lightroom, Photoshop or the editor you prefer. Qimage works as a standalone printing application, with its own tools for quick corrections. Optional Photoshop, Lightroom Classic and Elements plugins are included with selected licenses.
Is Qimage a subscription? Does my license expire?
No subscription is required. Your purchased version never expires. Standard personal licenses include one year of updates, with optional renewal for further updates. Lifetime-update personal and business licenses are also available. Compare licenses and update options.
