Rules for Borderless Greeting Card Setup

7 x 10

Width - 10
Height - 7

8 x 9 Pano

Width - 8
Height - 9

5.5 x 8.5

Width - 8.5
Height - 5.5

When you are ready to print a custom borderless size, choose it from the 'Size' dropdown in the printer properties.

You must check the 'Borderless' check box before printing.

Click on the 'Expansion' button.

To ensure the print has no borders, your printer expands the file size during printing. We recommend setting this option to 'Auto Expand' and 'Mid' enlargement for best results. If you see small white margins on your print, set the enlargement to 'Max'.

Designing Borderless Print Layout

In Photoshop, Photoshop Elements and other editing / layout programs, the image must go to the edges of your layout. For example, if you have a 7' x 10' card in Photoshop, make certain your photo or artwork extends to the edge.

Feeding Paper for Custom Borderless Printing

As you probably know, inkjet printers expect paper to be fed short side first. For an example, picture how you feed in 8.5x11. When using a custom borderless size, you must feed the paper width side down for the process to work. If you do not remember the width of your size, go to the 'User Defined' menu in the printer properties and review the size definition.

This is of key importance with 7x10 greeting cards. Feed into your printer like so:
