Because printing is not easy, there are many technical aspects to be taken into account. +This view allows you to select and print your images. -After selecting an image in the [lighttable view](../lighttable/_index.md) you can enter the [print settings](../module-reference/utility-modules/print/print-settings.md) module to adjust printer settings and initiate printing. +The first step is to select an image in the [lighttable view](../lighttable/_index.md), then switch to the print view. The selected image will be displayed in the centre panel and the [print settings](../module-reference/utility-modules/print/print-settings.md) module will now allow you to adjust printer settings and initiate printing. -This module supports the printer's ICC profile, which is somewhat mandatory if you want to obtain a high quality print close to the image displayed on the screen. - -It is important to note that ICC profiles provided by the paper and/or printer manufacturers cannot be used on GNU/Linux as they are printer-driver dependent. The darktable print module uses CUPS and there are no ready-to-use ICC profiles available for this driver. +The [filmstrip](../module-reference/utility-modules/shared/filmstrip.md) at the bottom of the screen is active and you can select more images into the centre panel ready for printing.
