Page 75: Appendix C - Borderless Printing: Borderless Print Vs. Oversize
APPENDICES Appendix C – Borderless Printing: Borderless Print vs. Oversize L-Series Print Driver (under Printing Preferences) offers two ways for printing to the edge of the media, sometimes called “borderless” or “full-bleed” printing. Each option adjusts the relationship between the target image, selected media size and the actual media on which is it printed, but in different ways. - Page 76 APPENDICES Prerequisites for Borderless Print Since scaling can distort the image, do not use Borderless Print for targets that have barcodes or text because this setting could render them unreadable. If target image is a photograph or other graphical image, scaling may not be noticeable or objectionable.
- Page 77 APPENDICES Page Setup for Oversize When using Oversize option, Resizing (located in Layout Tab of Driver) needs to be set to “Original Size”. Page Setup for Oversize Option Impact of Using Oversize Selecting Oversize extends Custom Sizes dimensions beyond that of actual media being printed on. Since this size extension is equal in both X- and Y- axes, there is no distortion of target image.
- Page 78 APPENDICES ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS AND TIPS Some additional considerations apply to both Borderless Print and Oversize in certain circumstances. Minimum Label Gap and Maximum Width For both Borderless Print and Oversize, additional consideration and testing are required when approaching limitations for minimum label gap and maximum label width. ...
