| Printing on 8.5x11 without borders |

My printer can print without borders so I'm trying to print covers out on 8.5x11 paper. I have the borders option set to "None", but I still can't seem to get the image to fit the paper. I have the page settings on landscape and 100% scale as the site says and the paper size is set to the correct US Letter setting. If anyone here has a printer that can print without borders, what do I need to do to get the image the right size on 8.5x11 paper? I'm printing on a Mac through Paintbrush if that makes a difference. |

If your printer doesn't support borderless printing, it will add it's own printing margins. Check your printer's compatibility. If it does offer borderless printing, there will be an option in the printer settings to enable it for that print. --- End quote --- Um... --- Quote from: lotusoftheleaf on March 26, 2012, 06:03:16 AM ---I have the page settings on landscape and 100% scale as the site says and the paper size is set to the correct US Letter setting.

What software are you printing form and where are you making the adjustments to the print options? |

Some printers claim that they can print borderless, when actually they don't. |

So when I print a DVD cover on a regular 8.5X11 sheet paper, I can get 98.2% of the whole size on the paper. In my opintion, if you are trying to do UGC's, it will be really really small. Best bet is to go out and buy some legal paper, it is worth every penny! |
