Printing Borderless Photographs

This section describes how to print from Easy-PhotoPrint using the Borderless Printing mode. Easy-PhotoPrint is included on your Setup Software & User’s Guide CD-ROM.

Media Types Suitable for Borderless Printing

zThe following media are compatible with Borderless Printing:

-Photo Paper Pro (Letter and 4" x 6")

-Photo Paper Plus Glossy (Letter, 5" x 7", and 4" x 6")

-Photo Paper Plus Double Sided (Letter and 5" x 7")

-Photo Paper Plus Semi-gloss (Letter and 4" x 6")

-Matte Photo Paper (Letter)

-Glossy Photo Paper (Letter, 4" x 6", and 2.13" x 3.39")

zPrinting on paper other than the above may cause improper paper feeding, may deteriorate the print quality or may produce prints in different color tones.

zSelecting the wrong media type may affect the colors or cause printing to slow down.

To ensure optimum printing results, select the correct media type that matches the paper you are loading in the printer.

zBorderless Printing may not assure high print quality on the edges of the print or may cause the edges of the print blurred.

Follow the steps below to produce color prints of digital camera photographs with Easy- PhotoPrint using the Borderless Printing function. Easy-PhotoPrint supports ExifPrint. Easy- PhotoPrint can handle only JPEG files (file name extension: .jpg and .jpeg).

You can edit images taken with a digital camera by using the Red-Eye Correction function and Digital Face Smoothing function and print them with Easy-PhotoPrint. For more information about Easy-PhotoPrint, refer to the Photo Application Guide.
