Printing Area

To ensure the best print quality, the printer allows a margin along each edge of media. The actual

printable area will be the area inside these margins.

Recommended printing area : Canon recommends that you print within this area.

Printable area : The area where it is possible to print.

However, printing in this area can affect the print quality or the paper feed precision.

Note

Borderless Printing

By selecting Borderless Printing option, you can make prints with no margins.

When performing Borderless Printing, slight cropping may occur at the edges since the printed image is enlarged to fill the whole page.
