Photo Printing - Supermarket help!

Hi - I went to asda to get a photo printed today - I used one of the "serve yourself" machines, and before it printed it said - It is illegal to print images that may have been taken by a professional photographer or that are under copyright laws - Well, something like that. The thing is, are there any supermarkets that don't have such strict policies? The image was from google images, and it wasn't mine.

I'm from the UK, so i am thinking of places like Asda, Sainsburys, Tescos and others like Boots.

Thanks, James :D

Hi there!

I have heard asda do have stict copyright policies but if you try printing from asda online then ive heard that isnt a problem.

Try boots and tesco. Alternatively you can try www.kodakgallery.co.yk or www.snapfish.co.uk

Good luck {up}

To cover themselves from being sued, all super markets and other self serve photo printing places must use that message. However, if you use the websites of most of these places to upload the pictures and order them to be collected in store or alternatively sent directly to your address, you can usually get away with it ok.

Good luck!

I print my photo's out at Asda all the time and I always get that message. I use sites like Google, View Images, Jamd etc and I still print the pics out and have never had a problem :)
