printing in mirror or horizontal flip

ok, I am really stupid. I upgraded to window xp and now I can't figure out how to make my printer print in the horizontial flip (mirror image) I have an HP 610cl, I went to the hp site and downloaded the new stuff, but there is still NO option that comes up any where for me to print in the mirror image. I am trying to print in the mirror to make transfers for shirts. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME

mirror print

What software are ya using? My "Haines" T shirt works great.

 

it has nothing to do with the shirt, it has to do with trying to figure out how to print my picture in a mirror image

 

are we red faced

Key word here dude is software; not T-shirt. How where you able to flip/mirror in win98? What SOFTWARE/EDITOR whatever you want to call it did you use? I promise I will not use the word "T "-shirt again

 

Look on the "Features" tab of your printer setup for the "Flip Horizontal" box. If it isn't there then it's because it's not supported in XP. You might want to cry to HP about that.

In the meantime, you can get some helper software that will do that function for you, as Rancher is suggesting.

If it were my problem, I'd copy my design to a good graphics editor and let it do the flipping, most of them do that very well. Then print it from there.

There you have it in spite of yourself.

 

Thank You all for trying to help me out, well I think that it might not be supported through HP Do I have to purchase something else to do this (helper stuff) or do you know if there are "freebies "

Thanks again,

me

 

Have you tried opening or copy/pasting your creation into Windows Paintbrush and using it to flip the image? I don't know what program you are using to create this work but it should allow for copy/pasting. If its a graphics program, you will be able to open the file it creates by opening Paintbrush and browsing to the file. Perhaps if you post back with more details we can get down to specifics. Spill it all so we don't have to pump you for it. I have little patience and probably need a nap, so watch it!

Sorry 'bout the gender flub Ya don't want to take our joshin' toooooooo seriously tho Glad you are progressing too! The little free viewer "IrFanView" can do lots more then paint tho. Have you downloaded & install appys from the internet?

Another try is to remove the HP 610cl printer from the 'printers and faxes' menu/reboot and install your win98 drivers. I've had this work for an old flatbed scanner
