2.Select the paper size 
Select a page size from the Page Size list on the Page Setup tab.

Borderless Printing 
Borderless Printing 
The borderless printing function allows you to print data without any margin by enlarging the data so that
it extends slightly off the paper. Without the borderless printing function, a margin is provided around the
printed data. If you want to print data such as a photo without providing any margin around it, select
Borderless Printing. 
The procedure for performing borderless printing is as follows: 
Setting Borderless Printing 
1.Open the printer driver setup window
2.Set borderless printing 
Check the Borderless Printing check box on the Page Setup tab. 
Click OK when the confirmation message appears. 
When a message prompting you to change the media type appears, select a media type from the
list and click OK. 
3.Check the paper size 
Check the Page Size list. If you want to change, select another page size from the list. The list
displays only sizes that can be used for borderless printing. 
4.Adjust the amount of extension from the paper 
Adjust the amount of extension using the Amount of Extension slider as necessary. 
Moving the slider to the right makes the amount larger and moving the slider to the left makes the
amount smaller. 
Стр. 186 из 334 стр. Borderless Printing
 
						

							It is recommended to set the slider at the second position from the right for most cases. 
Important 
If you set the slider at the rightmost position, the back side of the paper may become smudged.
5.Complete the setup 
Click OK. 
The data will be printed without any margins on the paper. 
Important 
If a page size that cannot be used for borderless printing is selected, the size is automatically
changed to the valid page sizes for borderless printing. 
When High Resolution Paper, T-Shirt Transfers, or Envelope is selected from the Media Type list on
the Main tab, you cannot perform borderless printing. 
When Borderless Printing is checked, the Printer Paper Size, Page Layout, Staple Side (when
Duplex Printing is not selected) settings, and the Stamp/Background... button on the Page Setup tab
appear grayed out and are unavailable. 
Print quality may deteriorate or the sheet may be stained at the top and bottom depending on the
type of the media used. 
When the ratio of the height to the width differs greatly from the image data, a portion of the image
may not be printed depending on the size of the media used. 
In this case, crop the image data with an application software according to the paper size. 
Note 
When Plain Paper is selected for Media Type on the Main tab, borderless printing is not
recommended, and therefore the dialog box for media selection appears. 
If you are using plain paper for test printing, select Plain Paper, and click OK. 
Expanding the range of the document to print 
Specifying a large amount of extension allows you to perform borderless printing with no problems.
However, the portion of the document that extends off the paper range will not be printed. Subjects
around the perimeter of a photo may not be printed. 
Try borderless printing once. If you are not satisfied with the result of borderless printing, reduce the
amount of extension. The extension amount becomes shorter as the Amount of Extension slider is
moved to the left. 
Important 
If the Amount of Extension is shortened, an unexpected margin may be produced on the print,
depending on the size of the paper. 
Note 
If Preview before printing is checked on the Main tab, you can confirm before printing whether there
will be no border.
