Downloading and saving picture

Click the picture and view it in the Facebook Photo Viewer. If clicking the picture opens another one, go back in the browser and look for a double arrow in the top-right corner.

Once viewing the picture, in the bottom-right corner, click Options and click the Download link to save the picture to your computer.

Printing the picture once saved

Once the picture is saved (downloaded), you can open the picture and print it or save the picture with other pictures to print multiple pictures at one time.

Printing a Facebook picture through a Kiosk

The Kodak Picture Kiosk now offers a service to print your pictures on Facebook. Some retailers have this kiosk available for customer use, so you can print pictures in high quality. This service costs money to use.

There is also a CVS Express Photo app available for use on Facebook. This app lets you select pictures to print and pick up at your local CVS Pharmacy.

Tip

If you save the pictures to your computer, they can be moved to a CD-R (compact disc recordable) or a USB (universal serial bus) flash drive, then transferred to any kiosk or online picture service.
