    Retain SizeSelect this setting if you do not want to change the 
    ratio of your print data.
    When you select this setting, you need to enlarge 
    your image data to exceed the paper width, to 
    avoid unprinted areas appearing along all four 
    edges. Using your application, increase your image 
    width by 0.25 in. (6.35 mm) and your image height 
    by 0.1 inch (2.54 mm).
    Amount of 
    EnlargementWhen you select Auto Expand, the slider becomes 
    available, so you can control the amount of the 
    image that extends beyond the edges of the paper 
    during borderless printing.
    For most print jobs, Max is recommended in order to 
    eliminate margins on all sides of the paper.
    Moving the slider towards Min decreases the 
    amount of the image enlargement; however, as this 
    amount decreases, a white border may appear on 
    one or more sides of the print.
