88 Printing With Epson Drivers for Macintosh
Note: Make sure you set the margins to zero when printing a custom page size for borderless printing.
For true borderless printing on roll paper, you can select a Paper Size setting with an Auto Expand or Retain Size option, or create a custom paper size, as described on page 106. Your image may be clipped on the left and right edges, but you can minimize clipping by sizing your image according to the paper width and by adjusting the length by adding 0.1 inch (2.54 mm) to it.
Paper sizes with the Auto Expand option provide the best solution for borderless printing with minimal image clipping. Using this setting, you can create an image width almost equal to the width of the roll media. If you use a paper size with the Retain Size option, you should create an image slightly wider than the actual width of the roll media. Or you can create a custom paper size and select the Retain Size option. See the table below for guidelines:
