Description

This article provides information about the PIXMA TR4720, including media types to use if you want to do a borderless print.

Solution

Print Area

To maintain print quality, the printer leaves a margin around the edges of paper. The printable area is inside this margin.

(recommended print area): Print within this area, when possible.

(printable area): You can also print in this area. However, feeding precision or print quality may be affected.

Example of print area

 When performing automatic duplex printing and duplex (two-sided) copying, the printable area will be 0.08 in. (2 mm) smaller at the top margin.

 By selecting the 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.

 When performing borderless printing / copying, select Amount of extension in Print settings under Device settings to specify the amount of images that extends off the paper.

 For borderless printing, use the following paper:

  • Photo Paper Pro Platinum <PT-101>

  • Glossy Photo Paper "Everyday Use" <GP-501 / GP-508>

  • Photo Paper Glossy <GP-701>

  • Photo Paper Plus Glossy II <PP-201 / PP-208 / PP-301>

  • Photo Paper Pro Luster <LU-101>

  • Photo Paper Plus Semi-gloss <SG-201>

  • Matte Photo Paper <MP-101>

  • Photo Stickers (16 stickers per sheet) <PS-108>

  • Photo Stickers (Free Cutting) <PS-208>

  • Photo Stickers (Variety Pack) <PS-808>

  • Restickable Photo Paper <RP-101>

  • Removable Photo Stickers <PS-308R>

  • Magnetic Photo Paper <MG-101 / PS-508>

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

Borderless printing on plain paper may result in printouts with reduced quality. Use them only for test printing. borderless printing onto plain paper from the operation panel is not supported.

 Borderless printing is not available for legal, A5 or B5 sized paper, or envelopes.

 Depending on the type of paper, borderless printing may reduce the print quality at the top and bottom edges of the paper or cause these parts to become smudged.
