Check the paper size

Check the Page Size list. When 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

If necessary, adjust the amount of extension using the Amount of Extension slider.
Moving the slider to the right increases the amount extending off the paper, and moving the slider to
the left decreases the amount.
It is recommended to set the slider at the second position from the right for most cases.

Important

When you set the slider at the rightmost position, the back side of the paper may become
smudged.

Complete the setup

Click OK.

When you execute print, the data is printed without any margins on the paper.

Important

When 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 is selected, the Printer Paper Size, Duplex Printing, Staple Side settings, and the
Stamp/Background... (Stamp...) button on the Page Setup tab appear grayed out and are
unavailable.
Depending on the type of the media used during borderless printing, the print quality may
deteriorate at the top and bottom of the sheet or stains may form.
When the ratio of the height to the width differs 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 message for media selection appears.
When you are using plain paper for test printing, select Plain Paper, and click OK.

Expanding the Range of the Document to Print

Setting a large amount of extension allows you to perform borderless printing with no problems.
However, the portion of the document extending off the paper range will not be printed. Subjects around
the perimeter of a photo may not be printed.

Try borderless printing once. When you are not satisfied with the result of borderless printing, reduce the
amount of extension. The extension amount decreases as the Amount of Extension slider is moved to

the left.

Important

When the amount of extension is decreased, an unexpected margin may be produced on the print,
depending on the size of the paper.

Note

When the Amount of Extension slider is set to the leftmost position, image data will be printed in the
full size.
When Preview before printing is checked on the Main tab, you can confirm whether there will be no
