Borderless Printing

For true borderless printing on roll paper, you can select either Auto Expand or Retain Size and create a custom paper size, as described on page 104. Your image may be clipped on the left and right edges, but you can minimize clipping by sizing your image according to the page width and by adjusting the length.

For either setting, you should add 0.1 inch to the length of your custom size.

The Auto Expand setting provides the best solution for borderless printing with minimal image clipping. Using this setting and the Retain Size setting, you can create a custom paper width equal to the width of the roll media.

The following table shows recommended image widths (in inches) for borderless printing using either the Auto Expand (Standard) or Retain Size setting:
