Hello,

I realize this printer is old but I has worked for me flawlessly for 6.5 years.  When I print a photo [5x7 at this time] it prints at the top of the page. This gives me little or no border to work with at the top of the photo.  C Also check marking "fit to frame" make no difference with the top border.

 

Is there a setting change that I can't find that could correct this?

 

Many thanks to you,

Mike Reilly

Rainbow23,

Thank you for the information & links you provided to me. That sent me in the right direction to help solve this problem.

 

Although there is no specific setting change for the moving the borders, I came up with a work-around. Although the my paper size was correctly set to what I am using (Letter 8.5x11},  I changed it to "legal" size. This allowed extra paper to be drawn in and gave me an additional 1.5" of border across the top of the photo. Voila!!  Problem solved.

 

Thank you sooooo much for your help,

Mike
