Is it possible to print borderless with this printer? I need top print brochures and cannot find the setting to make this possible.

 

Thank you,

I used to think that this was possible (alternate print driver) -- I have since been informed that the capability to print borderless is tied to the physical hardware:  The printer can print borderless - or it cannot do so.

 

Assuming for the moment that there is a way 'round the restriction, you might try Photo Creations (works for Windows and Mac).  If the software can find a way to provide the service, it will do so.
