Follow the steps in this section to print on roll paper and select settings for borderless printing and automatic cutting. (If you’re printing on cut sheets, see page 135).

Type a name for your custom size, then enter the size in hundredths of an inch (or centimeters) and click Save. Then click OK.

4.If you want to reduce or enlarge your image, click the Page Layout tab. See page 137 for more information.
