The beauty of margins

Most of the B/W photographs on display for viewing pleasure in art museums and galleries have wide margins. Without question, presenting the photograph itself is singularly the most important aspect of viewing B/W photographs as pieces of artistic expression. It should be noted, however, that at the same time, the use of the margins framing a photograph is also immeasurably important and the delicate balance between a photograph and its margins dramatically affects the impression and overall atmosphere a piece can possess. Margins are essential in expertly depicting textures, if using the special material quality of the paper itself, such as that found in fine art paper. Other advantages of having margins around a photograph are that they can be used to describe the name of the piece, and the date it was captured, or they can be used for tacking up a photograph on a wall without having to damage the image itself.

Provides a function for creating calculated margins

As anyone who has experienced photofinishing B/W film in a darkroom will tell you, normally the size of the margin is adjusted on a photograph by setting the developing paper at the desired size in the easel mask. Easy- PhotoPrint Pro is provided a function for setting where to arrange your image on the paper by allowing you the same kind of freedom in expressing margins above, below and right and left of the final printout. There are three methods for setting margins. This provides every level of user with expert capabilities in photo reproduction, for every desired end result. (Note that functions also output high quality color photographs.)

When printing in grayscale, we recommend printing with the top and bottom margins of the paper set to more than 45 mm/1.77 inches. Depending on an image, without these margins, the printing troubles may occur on the top and/or bottom edges of the paper such as uneven coloration or white streaks, and the print quality may be degraded. A setting method for 45 mm/1.77 inches margins is outlined below.
