margin size on deskjet 3721

[montaine]

hello

can someone please confirm if this printer is able to do borderless printing? Im trying to print 4X6 photos with no margin or at least an even margin but i cant change the margins anywhere, there isnt the option in the driver. so instead what happens is i get a large margin at the bottom of the photo, around 13mm and the sides have a 3mm margin.

No borderless printing on this model.

The best you can do is to center the print on the paper.

For example, set all margins at .5 inch > Center horizontally and vertically.

The document margins must match (or exceed) these margin settings in the portrait orientation.
