Subject: Roll Media Borderless Printing
1. BORDERLESS PRINTING WITH AUTO EXPAND OVERVIEW
In order to achieve a true borderless print on roll media with minimal clipping with the Stylus Pro 4000 printer driver select the Auto Expand feature.
This is intended to be a quick solution to automatically expand your image width by 3% to produce a borderless print. Depending on the print size you choose some
clipping is normal. If clipping of the image is an issue you can try adjusting your image print size so when "Auto Expand" is selected minimal clipping occurs. This
document outlines the steps required to produce roll media prints with minimal clipping of the left and right edges of your image.
The examples in this document represent how you would create a borderless 8" X 10" print on Epson 10" roll media with the Auto Expand feature of the Epson driver.
The application used was Adobe PhotoShop CS, using Macintosh O/S 10.3.3 and Windows XP.
The table below details roll paper widths and the corresponding image width recommendations to print images with minimal clipping of the left and right
edges of your image when the Auto Expand driver feature is selected.
