2 8×10 prints fit on 11×17 in a simple grid
Using the full sheet dimensions and no added margin or gap, the strongest uniform-grid orientation is 1 columns × 2 rows (rotated 90°), for 2 prints total. This is a geometry result, not a guarantee that every home printer can use the entire sheet.
Why your real result can be lower
Printer hardware margins
Many printers cannot print edge to edge. Their printable area can be smaller than the physical paper.
Cutting gap
Adding space between prints makes trimming easier but reduces the number that may fit.
Rotation
The calculator compares original and 90° rotated uniform-grid layouts and uses your actual margin settings.
8×10 aspect ratio
A 8×10 print has a 4:5 aspect ratio. If your artwork uses a different shape, it may need cropping or borders even when the physical dimensions fit on the paper.
