Borderless Printing at Actual Size (Windows)

• When printing without borders, be certain to set the blue switch on the platen to the ● side. If the switch is set
incorrectly, print quality may deteriorate. (See "Setting the Blue Switch on the Platen.")
Important
• Borderless printing is not possible if details such as crop marks and margins are included as data on the periph-
ery of the original.
• If the length of the image to print is short, then since the roll paper is fed out to a prescribed length before cutting
in order to prevent cutting problems and ejection problems, the trailing edge of the roll paper might not be printed
borderless.
• If you use an A1 orA2 roll for borderless printing, insert the provided Spacer for Borderless Printing onthe Roll
Holder. (See "Loading Rolls on the Roll Holder.")
If you do not attach the Spacer for Borderless Printing,the Platen maybe soiled from borderless printing.
• These features cannot be used in combination with borderless printing: special page layouts, centering originals,
and printing cut lines on rolls.
• If Fit Paper Size or Print Image with Actual Size (Windows only) is selected while performing borderless print-
ing, Rotate Page 90 degrees (Conserve Paper) cannot be selected. Note that if borderless printing is possible,
then even if the original is rotated 90 degrees, it will be printed by automatically rotating the page by 90 degrees.
Choose the method of borderless printing that suits the original, as desired.
• Print Image with Actual Size
Prints originals at actual size, without enlarging or reducing them. We recommend when focusing on image
quality. You should create the original at a size larger by 3 mm on each side than the paper size.
• Not all page sizes are available.
Note • When performing borderless printing without using Print Image with Actual Size, the image deteriorates
slightly because the image is automatically enlarged.
For instructions on borderless printing of photos and images at actual size, refer to the following topics, as ap-
propriate for your computer and operating system.

• When borderless printing is used, the edge of the paper is cut during printing. Thus, ink density may be uneven at
the edges. If you require higher image quality, select No from the Automatic Cutting list in the Roll Paper Op-
Important
tions dialog box. In this case, the paper can be printed without borders on the left and right sides only. Once
printed and cut, please cut the upper and lower bands with scissors.
