A few years back, AOL was scorned in the industry, the object of ridicule. Now, other companies are scrambling to imitate it. Pictures are OK but not great. My printer is the Canon BJC 4100 . It has to do with how many pixels, or dots, your camera can produce and how many your screen or printer can display.
Every image produced by a filmless camera has a finite number of dots or pixels.
In its standard mode, Deann's camera, which is a couple of years old, can do 480 x 240. That's about 115,000, which can look okay when they appear on part of a screen. But printed images require more dots to look good at the same size-in general, about twice as many in each direction, or four times all told. So unless Deann gets a new digital camera that can capture images with more dots, the solution is to print pictures at smaller sizes-say a quarter of what looks good on screen. But it's wise to experiment.
