You should create the original at a size larger by 3 mm on each side than the paper size.Note• Not all page sizes are available.• When performing borderless printing without using Print Image with Actual Size, the image deteriorates slightlybecause the image is automatically enlarged.For instructions on borderless printing of photos and images at actual size, refer to the following topics, as appro-priate for your computer and operating system.• Borderless Printing at Actual Size (Windows) ➔P.81• Borderless Printing at Actual Size (Mac OS) ➔P.83Borderless Printing at Actual Size (Windows)Borderless Printing at Actual Size (Windows)This topic describes how to print borderlessly at actual size based on the following example.Important• When borderless printing is used, the edge of the paper is cut during printing. Thus, ink density may be uneven at theedges. If you require higher image quality, select No from the Automatic Cutting list in the Roll Paper Optionsdialog box. In this case, the paper can be printed without borders on the left and right sides only.
