Guidelines
When printing borderless printouts, follow these guidelines:
• Open the file in a software application and assign the image size. Ensure that
the size corresponds to the paper size on which you want to print the image.
• Verify that the paper size that is specified in the Page Setup dialog box matches
the size of the paper that is loaded in the paper tray.
• Select the appropriate paper type in the Paper Type/Quality panel.
• Do not print borderless documents in ink-backup mode. Always have two print
cartridges installed in the printer.
