Hello,

Why is it that a A4 size paper with borderless printings is shown correctly
in preview form software (Photoshop, Word and Acrobat) and after actual
printing the pictures appears to be a bit larger, so some part is 'cut off'.
As if the printer settings (dispite the right settings) doesn't allow to
print what I want. That is full use of A4 (borderless). Pictures are custom
sized in mm exactly.

Does this question make any sense? And more important how to solve it?

Thanks

Lane

Borderless printing actually means "slightly oversized". This is to
guarantee that all of the page is actually filled, assuming the aspect
ratio is correct. This is necessary to account for minor tolerances in
paper size and also variations in the pick-up and paper feed mechanism.
The slight excess sprays onto the waste ink pads, but it does mean that
some of the image may be wrong.

Perfectly. ;-)

Only one way - and you have already discovered it. Bordered printing.
