Edge-to-Edge Printing The printer can print up to or past the edges of rigid media. This provides the look of a “full-bleed” print without trimming the media. For best results, follow these guidelines.

Document, Application, and RIP Settings

◆To ensure that the printer will print past the edges of the media, design or enlarge the job slightly larger than the media. For example, if the media is 32 inches wide, set an Overprint distance of 0.125 inches (see Menu > Printer Set- tings > Margin Settings) and size the document to 32.25 inches wide.

◆For images with a special detail at the edge of the page, such as a border, make the border line thicker than usual to extend past the edges of the page.
