Borderless Printing on Paper of Equivalent Size iPF840
Take advantage of borderless printing to print documents such as posters (made up mainly of photos or images) without a surrounding margin, or border.
In regular printing, a margin required by the printer is added around the original. With borderless printing, you can print documents without the margin, so that the printed image covers the entire surface of the paper.
• Borderless printing is only available with rolls.
• Paper you can use for borderless printing is restricted to particular types of paper and rolls of particular widths.
(See " Displaying the Paper Reference Guide .")
• Although it normally prints borderless on the top, bottom, left, and right (4-edge borderless), in the following cases, it becomes borderless only on the left and right (2-edge borderless) because the top and bottom of the printed image are not automatically cut.
• When paper where the borderless printing is described as two edges only in the Paper Reference Guide
(paper where printed image areas cannot be cut cleanly) is selected
• When the following settings are made in the printer control panel
• Cutting Mode is Manual
• CutDustReduct.
is On
• When auto cut is configured as not performed in the printer driver
Important
• Borderless printing is not possible if details such as crop marks and margins are included as data on the periphery of the original.
• If the length of the image to print is short, then since the roll paper is fed out to a prescribed length before cutting in order to prevent cutting problems and ejection problems, the trailing edge of the roll paper might not be printed borderless.
• These features cannot be used in combination with borderless printing: special page layouts, centering originals, and printing cut lines on rolls.
• If Fit Paper Size or Print Image with Actual Size (Windows only) is selected while performing borderless printing, Rotate Page 90 degrees (Conserve Paper) cannot be selected. Note that if borderless printing is possible, then even if the original is rotated 90 degrees, it will be printed by automatically rotating the page by 90 degrees.
Choose the method of borderless printing that suits the original, as desired.

iPF840 Borderless Printing by Resizing Originals to Match the Paper Size (Windows)
• Fit Paper Size
Enlarge or reduce the original to match the size of the paper you are using.
Note
• The printer driver automatically enlarges originals 3 mm (0.12 in) past the dimensions of the paper on each side. The 3 mm portion beyond the edge on each side is not printed.
For instructions on borderless printing of photos, images, and other documents to match the paper size, refer to the following topics, as appropriate for your operating system.

Note
• To perform borderless printing with resizing to fit the paper size on Mac OS, select borderless in Paper
Size and use Scale to fit paper size in the Paper Handling panel provided by the OS.
For more information, see the Mac OS User Manual.
This topic describes how to enlarge originals before borderless printing to match the paper size, based on the following example.
Important
• When borderless printing is used, the edge of the paper is cut during printing. Thus, ink density may be uneven at the edges. If you require higher image quality, select No from the Automatic Cutting list in the Roll Paper Options dialog box. In this case, the paper can be printed without borders on the left and right sides only. Once printed and cut, please cut the upper and lower bands with scissors.
