By default, the printer leaves a 5 mm margin between the edges of your image and the edges of the paper (17 mm at the foot of a sheet of paper). However, you can change this behavior in several ways.
-
In the Windows driver dialog: select the Paper/Quality tab and then the Margins/Layout button.
-
In the Mac OS Print dialog: select the Paper Type/Quality panel and then Layout.
You will then see at least some of the following options.
note:Under Mac OS, the available margins options depend on the paper size selected in the Page Setup dialog. For instance, for borderless printing you must select a paper size name that includes the words “no margins”.
-
Standard. Your image will be printed on a page of the size you have selected, with a narrow margin between the edges of the image and the edges of the paper. The image should be small enough to fit between the margins.
-
Oversize. Your image will be printed on a page slightly larger than the size you have selected. If you cut off the margins, you will be left with a page of the size you selected, with no margins remaining between your image and the edges of the paper.
-
Clip Contents By Margins. Use this option when your image has white borders and a size equal to that of the paper you have selected. The printer will use the white border for its margins and you will get a page of size equal to that which is selected in the driver.
-
Borderless. Your image will be printed on a page of the size you have selected, with no margins. The image is slightly enlarged to ensure that no margin is left between the edges of the image and the edges of the paper. If you select Automatically by Printer, this enlargement is done automatically. If you select Manually in Application, you should ensure that the image size in your application is slightly larger than the paper size. See also Print with no margins.
