Great, thanks Ronni
I will archive your reply with the others. You make it sound so easy.

Hi John,
I would do it this way:
A) Create a Folder on your Desktop name it for example "For The
Printer".
1.In iPhoto, "Select all the photos" in the album that you want to
go to the printer.
2.Choose File > Export.
3.Click "File Export" at the top of the Export Photos window.
4.In the File Export pane, change the desired options:
Kind: Choose a file format for your exported images from the Format
pop-up menu. (Depending on the source of the images, you may want to
choose JPG to ensure compatibility.)
JPEG Quality: Maximum Quality
Size: Full Size (unless you want different)
Name: Choose whether to export photos with their filenames, iPhoto
titles, or album name. Be sure to select the "Use extension"
checkbox to add the file format extensions (such as ".jpg" or
".tiff") to the end of the photos' filenames, titles, or album names.
5.Click Export.
6.Choose a location for the photos you are exporting, (which is the
Folder you have created on the Desktop), then click OK.
7.When the export is finished, quit iPhoto.
8. Insert your Thumb Drive
9. Drag the Folder (that contains your photos) onto the Thumb
Drive's icon
10. When the photos have finished copying onto the Thumb Drive,
File > Eject the Thumb Drive.
You can then trash the folder of photos on the Desktop & empty the
trash.
You should now only have one copy of each photo on the Thumb Drive
when you get to the Printers.
Cheers,
Ronni

Yes I did query it before but didn't think I got the whole answer
or couldn't fully understand it. I had to take the same memory
stick in for a repeat print and was then told the same story.
This is what I did: Put all the pics I wanted into one album -
edit-select all -export -kind current (cannot select quality) thumb
drive OK.
Maybe where I went wrong I should have selected Kind-jpeg-high
quality.
The shop assistant showed me the 3 copies of the pics on his PC
which he said showed 3 of each in varying res.
When I look at the pics on the stick with Finder now, I see only
one high res of each so I don't know why his software would show a
different result.
Cheers

Hi all
I loaded some pics from iPhoto to a memory stick and used a
machine at Cameraland Oxford St (good shop).
On the shop's computer each pic showed up 3 times in varying
resolutions. This made it a little difficult for the shop to pick
which ones to print. They had to select the high res. ones and
then load them on to their memory stick before I could adjust
them on their machine.
Has anyone else seen this phenomena?

Hi John,
You asked this question back on 26 Oct 2009 and we answered it.
Start of Quote:
"How did you export the photos onto the Memory Card?
Did you - Export the images from iPhoto (File -> Export) - Maximum
Quality & Full Size to a folder on the desktop, then drag that to
the memory card?"
"The iPhoto library folder on your computer does keep 3 copies of
the photo. The original, the modified version (if you have altered
contrast/cropped/ rotated etc the picture) and finally a thumbnail
for quick viewing the image.
When you move your picture to an external storage device such as
the memory stick you mentioned you usually do this by exporting
the image from iPhoto or simply drag it from iPhoto. This will
place only one file (image) on your memory stick.
The only way you would have all 3 files on your memory stick that
I can think of is if you dragged the whole iPhoto library to you
memory stick."

Are you exporting the photos this way and still having a problem?
