Question Printing 12 x 12 in PSE

I need some much needed help! I am trying to print 12 x 12 on the Epson R1800 from PSE 3.0. I CANNOT find a way to print it borderless and have all of my layout on it, not cut off. I have read many suggestions throughout the forums and even talked to Epson directly on the phone. They are telling me it's a Photoshop thing that I have to adjust. Perhaps I should just try printing it through the Epson software. Hmmm. Didn't think of that until I just started typing this. Anyway, any suggestions/help would be appreciated!

I have an Epson Photo Stylus 820 and used to have a similar problem printing 8.5 by 11 borderless. I found a post on the Adobe forum once that helped me. The guy said that when Espon prints borderless, it actually stretches the image and that results in some of it getting cut off. What I found to work in most cases is reducing the size from 100% to 97.6% and then instead of the image being centered, I offset left to .07 and top to .07. When the print preview comes up, I enlarge the preview and examine the edges to see if anything is getting cut-off or if I am getting white space. If so, I adjust further but typically these settings work for me.

Good luck.

Yippee!

Wow! That tip worked so much! It's not perfect, but it's a definite start! I got the entire bottom and right side, but now have to mess around with the numbers a little more. It's so annoying because I am wasting paper, grrr. I wish I could figure it out w/o wasting my paper!!!!!!

Thumbs up Got it!

I finally got it PERFECT! It still has a border, but I don't even care at this point about it! Here are the #s I used in case it can help anyone else out!

My image is 11.5 x 11.5
I scaled it 96.7%
I took away center image and made it .11 top and .11 left
My paper size I chose 12 x 12 and the double matted paper, which is what I have.

Thank you SOO much for figuring that out for me! I NEVER would have figured that out myself!
