Select margins options
By default, the printer leaves a 5 mm margin between the edges of your image and the edges of the
paper (17 mm at the foot of a sheet of paper). However, you can change this behavior in several ways.
●
In the Windows driver dialog: select the Paper/Quality tab and then the Margins/Layout button.
●
In the Mac OS Print dialog: select the Paper Type/Quality panel and then Layout.
You will then see at least some of the following options.
NOTE: Under Mac OS, the available margins options depend on the paper size selected in the Page
Setup dialog. For instance, for borderless printing you must select a paper size name that includes the
words “no margins”.
●
Standard. Your image will be printed on a page of the size you have selected, with a narrow margin
between the edges of the image and the edges of the paper. The image should be small enough
to fit between the margins.
●
Oversize. Your image will be printed on a page slightly larger than the size you have selected. If
you cut off the margins, you will be left with a page of the size you selected, with no margins
remaining between your image and the edges of the paper.
●
Clip Contents By Margins. Use this option when your image has white borders and a size equal
to that of the paper you have selected. The printer will use the white border for its margins and you
will get a page of size equal to that which is selected in the driver.
●
Borderless. Your image will be printed on a page of the size you have selected, with no margins.
The image is slightly enlarged to ensure that no margin is left between the edges of the image and
the edges of the paper. If you select Automatically by Printer, this enlargement is done
automatically. If you select Manually in Application, you should ensure that the image size in your
application is slightly larger than the paper size. See also

Print with shortcuts
The printer driver provides many options that can be set to different values when printing a particular
job. A printing shortcut stores the values of all these options that are appropriate for a particular kind of
job, so that you can set them all with a single click. Some settings (such as paper size, paper source
and orientation) may be overridden by the values provided by your application.
To use a shortcut, select the Printing Shortcuts tab in the Windows driver dialog.
NOTE: Shortcuts are available only under Windows.
