My printout has incorrect margins. What should I do?

  • Try the following:
    • Make sure the following settings are set correctly in the Windows, Mac OS X 10.5/10.6, or Mac OS X 10.4 printer driver:
      • Size or Paper Size
      • Orientation
      • Reduce/Enlarge Document (Windows) or Scale (Mac OS X)
      • Borderless: Select this setting if printing a borderless photo. If necessary, use the Expansion setting to adjust the amount of image expansion.

        Note:
        You may see white borders on your printed photo if you select Min for the Expansion setting.
    • Choose the correct margins for your paper size in your printing program.
    • Use the Print Preview option in your Windows, Mac OS X 10.5/10.6, or Mac OS X 10.4 printer driver to check your margins before you print.
    • Make sure your paper is positioned correctly in the cassette.
    • If you're printing from a web browser, the pages may not print correctly due to the web page design. Try the following:
      • Check to see if there is a Printer Friendly Version (or similarly named) icon or link on the web page that you can click on.
      • Experiment with page setup and paper size, then select Print Preview from the File menu in the web browser to view the changes.
