Remove Printer Border (White Space/Margin)

[mustafa3]

Hello,

I'm developing a Java application. I need to pring some reports using application. During printing I need to remove the printer margin or white border. Actually I need to print a chunk of words in the very bottom of the page. Can you please tell me if how to do it?

Thanks | Regards

Don't know exactly what you mean by "... in the very bottom of the page ...".

All Laserjet printers have margins on all sides which cannot be printed on (to minimise contamination of, and damage to, the mechanism).

The specification page for the LaserJet Pro MFP M127fw shows some details (for A4 paper size):

Thanks for invalueble response, but my printer model is (Pro MFP-M125nw) and I need to print a sentence at the bottom border of the A4 page. Can you please tell me if it is possible or not.

Thanks | Regards

The specification page for the LaserJet Pro MFP M125nw shows some details (for A4 paper size):

This seems to be exactly the same as for the M127fw model.

According to both those specification pages, the bottom 5 mm of the A4 page is in an unprintable region.

You ask:

>> ...  I need to print a sentence at the bottom border of the A4 page ...

But you still haven't stated just what you consider to be the "bottom of the page".

... nor what you have tried, and what results you get.

Bear in mind that this forum board is a printer board, not one for Java.

Having said that, if you post some details of your code, some-one may be able to offer suggestions (I personally don't use Java, but it is just another programming language, so ...).

Thanks,

Forget Java, Actualy I'm asking to find a way to print on the unprintable region, The region that you mentioned. Is it any option that can be set in Print Dialog to print on the unprintable area? If not, why it is unprintable? And what about other models of HP printers?

Thanks

>> ...  Is it any option that can be set in Print Dialog to print on the unprintable area?

No.

>> ... If not, why it is unprintable?

Laser printers have an unprintable region (on all four edges of the paper).

The primary reason for this is to try to prevent toner powder getting into the mechanism, as to do so can lead to contamination of, and possibly (in some cases) damage to, the printer.

>> ... And what about other models of HP printers?

Inkjet printers use liquid ink droplets rather than toner powder, and some of these models do allow edge-to-edge (borderless) printing - but not all (I've no idea which (if any) models provide zero-margins all round).

Thanks, That was the answer.
