Important

  • If you want to print with minimal margins using a custom paper size, create a custom paper size by choosing Paper Size, Manage Custom Sizes..., and setting all Margins values to 0 mm. Next, choose Page Processing, Fit Roll Paper Width and select On (Borderless).
  • Depending on paper size, the length/width ratio of the paper may be different from that of the image, making it impossible for the whole image to fit on the paper.
    When this happens, crop the image with the application software to match paper size.
  • When printing with minimal margins on paper with low ink-fixing properties, depending on frequency of use, the cutter unit may come into contact with the paper surface scratching it and causing the paper to be unevenly cut.
    You may be able to improve the situation by choosing Advanced Paper Settings and set Dry Time (Between Pages) to a higher value.
  • If you select a paper type that doesn't support minimal margin printing, you won't be able to print with minimal margins. To see which paper types support minimal margin printing, refer to "Paper Settings List (Roll Paper)."
  • If you feel the left and right margins are different sizes, adjust the margin amount from Roll paper minimal margin amount on the printer. Then, perform printing.
    For instructions on how to adjust Roll paper minimal margin amount, refer to "Setting the Minimal Margin Amount When Performing the Minimal Margin Printing."
  • When using Minimal Margin Printing, the print settings are automatically changed to the optimized ones.This may result in having the same print result despite the change in the print settings.

Note

  • When using applications that allow you to set margins, set margins to 0 mm.
