Sis spent her money on the camera and isn't ready to replace the printer.
So...how does one print 4x6 photos on Deskjet 720 series?

The printer setup includes paper types "HP Photo Paper", "HP Deluxe Photo
Paper", etc.

Also, the setup includes paer sizes "Index card (4 x 6 in.)" and "Hagaki
Card (100 x 148 mm.)".

If I select landscape orientation and put paper on the right side of the
tray (equivalent to printing an envelope), I think all should be well.

When I go to print, under page setup, I set:
- Margins 0"
- Postion/Image Size: Fit to page
- Postion/Page position: Left/Top

The result is that about hakf the picture is printed off the edge of the
paper.

Anyone know how to cerrect this?

You are trying to set the margins to zero so that there is no border,
however the DeskJet 720 isn't capable of that. I would just get a new
printer. You can't do borderless 4x6's -- I would just print three 4x6's on
an 8x10 sheet of paper, and cut them out. The resolution on the 720 isn't
that good either -- you may be better off just getting a new printer... I
bought a HP Photosmart 7350 and I am very pleased with the output.
