Best photo printing software for OS 10.9.5

I lost my copy of iPhoto and all other similar programs when my computer crashed trying to load Yosemite. I need a good print program. Any suggestions?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

If you are still using Mavericks then re-boot into the Recovery Partition and reinstall OS X, iPhotos should be re-installed at that point.

However I suspect you have much larger problems if you system crashed while "loading" Yosemite. I would recommend posting an EtreCheck report of your system and then we can look for obvious issues. Click the link, install and run the app and copy the report results and paste to your reply to this message.

My mistake. I miss spoke. My MAC didn't actually crash, poor choice of words. After the install of Yosemite I was unable to use a number of APP's and I had zero access to the internet. After countless days with an apple tech, he got me access to Mavericks to reinstall. I have only the disc that came with the computer which is Snow Leopard. And yes I am running Mavericks now. I'm hoping to find a good program for printing. I seldom used iPhoto's print ware, it just didn't impress me.

There is no such thing as a printing app, every app that has the ability to print has the print drivers attached to it. If you don't like iPhoto for some reason the you need to use the printing utility that comes with the app you are using to manage your pictures. It's that simple.

As has been pointed out nearly every app that can open the image file can print it. If you want to make adjustments to the image and then print use a 3rd party image editor like Photoshop (high end) or one of these:
