Printing Area
To ensure the best print quality, the printer allows a margin along each edge of media. The actual printable area will be the area inside these margins.
Recommended printing area
 : Canon recommends that you print within this area. Printable area
 : The area where it is possible to print. However, printing in this area can affect the print quality or the paper feed precision.
REFERENCE
Borderless Printing
- By selecting Borderless Printing option, you can make prints with no margins.
- When performing Borderless Printing, slight cropping may occur at the edges since the printed image is enlarged to fill the whole page.
- For Borderless Printing, use the following paper:
- Photo Paper Pro Platinum <PT-101>
- Photo Paper Plus Glossy II <PP-201>
- Photo Paper Pro Luster <LU-101>

Performing Borderless Printing on any other type of paper may substantially reduce printing quality and/or result in printouts with altered color hues.
