    When you are seeing a photo on Facebook, ctrl-click it and select "Download linked file" or "Download linked file as ..."t o save it to a folder.

    Then open this folder in the Finder and drag the photo onto the iPhoto icon in the Dock to import it to iPhoto.Screen Shot 2015-10-28 at 22.26.55GMT.png

     

    Once the photos are in iPhoto you can select them in iPhoto, go to the  File menu, then use the command "Order Prints".
