Can anyone help. I've printed NES, SNES and N64 covers and no problem. I've followed the instructions on the how to print with PAINT and all the Xbox/Xbox 360 cover tests have come out either cut out on the left or right ends. Please. Help.

Brand new here myself but I've at least printed a couple of Xbox covers successfully...  If it's cutting off to one side are you selecting "landscape" instead of "portrait" when you set the printing?  I haven't needed legal paper yet but I've read that may help with some of these prints.  Another helpful tip I've read here is to measure the exact size of one of your existing covers and set the print to those numbers.  Other than that just  go slow through every print option you have and see what may be hindering your new covers.  Hope any of that helps!!!

I'm able to print Xbox sized covers on letter sized paper, but it prints very close to the edge, which not all printers are capable of.  If you printer is not able to print that close to the edge of the paper, you may have to print on legal sized paper.  Before you do that, double check your print margins to see if they can be widened. 
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."
