Canon PIXMA iX6850 - Manual (Page 69)

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.
Note
• 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
• Glossy Photo Paper "Everyday Use"
• Photo Paper Glossy
• Photo Paper Plus Glossy II
• Photo Paper Pro Luster
• Photo Paper Plus Semi-gloss
• Matte Photo Paper
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 is not available for legal, A5, B5, or B4 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.
