| Newbie Printing Woes... Canon Pixma Pro-100 printing slightly larger than source |

| p-r0t:
Hi all, I'm new to the site and just got a new Canon Pixma Pro-100... The quality is amazing, but when it comes to printing covers it seems to overscan the image just a bit which causes the output dimensions to differ than the source image. I'm trying to print out a DS cover using these settings which always produce a slightly larger image on paper: Photoshop CC on OSX 300 DPI US Letter 8.5x11" Borderless Printing mode. Scale to fit paper size = Unchecked Scale to fit media = Unchecked Print Resolution 300 PPI Source Image Resolution = 4.5x10.7" (Within range of 8.5x11") Source Image PPI = 300 PPI Resample = Disabled. Centered = Checked Print Preview image looks correct. Landscape Mode. Print Scale = 100% Print Height = 4.5 Print Width = 10.7 I'm expecting the print dimensions to be same on paper as they're defined to be printed. Is there something overly obvious that I'm missing? I've read the FAQ and searched the forums a bit but haven't found anything to sort this out. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! |

This might work: try setting scaling to 99% |

Borderless printing is prolly the issue. That option sometimes scales the image size up (like 2.5%). |

I'd try legal sized paper. |

I would use legal size paper in conjuction with a program called "UnderCoverXP." It will automatically resize your image to the exact dimensions you want and it is easy to switch between printing covers for DS cases to DVD and UGC inserts |
