borderless printing
You can set the printer to print your photos with or without white borders. When
you select borderless printing, photos print all the way to the edges of the paper
on three sides, and the fourth side prints with a 0.5 inch (12.5 mm) white border
that you can trim off. For truly borderless photos, use photo paper with a 0.5 inch
(12.5 mm) tear-off tab, such as HP premium plus photo paper.
The printer’s factory default setting for borderless printing is On. You can change
the default setting by following these steps:
1 Press the M
ENU button on the printer’s control panel.
2 Press the SELECT PHOTOS button until Preferences is highlighted on the
printer’s LCD screen. Press the OK button.
3 Press the SELECT PHOTOS button until Borderless is highlighted on the
printer’s LCD screen. Press the OK button.
4 Select from the following:
– On if you want to print borderless photos.
– Off if you want to print photos with a white border on all four sides.
5 With your selection highlighted on the printer’s LCD screen, press the OK
button.
Note: HP does not recommend printing borderless photos on plain paper.
