Performing Borderless Printing

When selecting the paper size with Sheet - Borderless (Auto Expand), Sheet - Borderless (Retain Size), Roll Paper - Borderless (Auto Expand), Roll Paper - Borderless (Retain Size), or Roll Paper - Borderless Banner as the Paper Size in the Page Setup dialog, Epson recommends the following media conditions.

Accommodate media width:

10 inch, 254 mm

300 mm

13 inch, 329 mm (Super A3/B)

16 inch, 406.4 mm

17 inch, 431.8 mm

515 mm (B2)

594 mm (A1)

24 inch, 609.6 mm

728 mm (B1)*

36 inch, 914.4 mm*

44 inch, 1117.6 mm*

* for EPSON Stylus Pro 9800/9400 use only.

Note:

If your application has margin settings, make sure they are set to zero before printing.

When printing on cut-sheet media, only the left and right margins are set to zero. The top margin is always 3 mm, and the bottom margin is always 14 mm. The back side of the paper may smear.

The ink may contaminate the platen of the printer. In this case, wipe the ink away using a cloth.

Printing with this feature takes longer time than normal printing.

When Premium Glossy Photo Paper (250) roll paper or Premium Semigloss Photo Paper (250) roll paper is used in printing, the top margin is always 20 mm.

The following media may smear in the top area when selecting Single Cut or Double Cut for the Auto Cut setting: Doubleweight Matte Paper, Singleweight Matte Paper, Enhanced Matte Paper, Textured Fine Art Paper, and UltraSmooth Fine Art Paper.

Smear may result in the top and bottom areas depending on the media.

To perform borderless printing, follow the steps below.

Note:

Always match the Format for setting in the Page Setup dialog with the Printer setting in the Print dialog; otherwise, data may not be printed correctly.

Select the paper size with Sheet - Borderless (Auto Expand), Sheet - Borderless (Retain Size), Roll Paper - Borderless (Auto Expand), Roll Paper - Borderless (Retain Size), or Roll Paper - Borderless Banner as the Paper Size in the Page Setup dialog.

Make the Auto Cut setting. See Auto Cut.

Click OK.

Start printing your data from your application.
