Selecting the Paper Source setting
You can select Sheet, Manual-Rear, or Manual-Front from the Paper Source drop-down list. Select the setting that matches the path you loaded paper in.
Selecting the Borderless setting
You can print your images without margins on the following size papers:
 |
Note: |
Follow these steps to select borderless print settings:
 |
Click the Borderless checkbox.
|
 |
Click the Expansion button. You see a window like this one.
|
 |
Choose Auto Expand or Retain Size, and the amount of enlargement.
|
Auto Expand
|
Select this setting if you want to enlarge the size of print data automatically and print without margins. You can choose the amount of enlargement by moving the slider.
Note: Enlarged areas that exceed the paper size will not be printed on the paper.
|
Retain Size
|
Select this setting if you do not want to change the ratio of your print data.
When you select this setting, you need to enlarge your image data to exceed the paper width and height, to avoid unprinted areas appearing along all four edges. Enlarge your images by 0.20 in. (5 mm) in all four directions in your application.
|
Amount of Enlargement
|
When you select Auto Expand, the slider becomes available, so you can control the amount of the image that extends beyond the edges of the paper during borderless printing.
For most print jobs, Max is recommended in order to eliminate margins on all sides of the paper.
Moving the slider towards Min decreases the amount of the image enlargement; however, as this amount decreases, a white border may appear on one or more sides of the print.
