White edges on borderless prints
Probable Cause 1
White edges can appear when there are slight misalignments between the printer and 
paper. Some software applications are able to “hide” these small misalignments so that the 
prints look borderless.
Corrective Action
• Realign the paper in the tray.
• Use the application's Fit to Page/Fill Page option, or resize the picture so it is slightly 
larger than the paper size.
Probable Cause 2
If the image's proportions or dimensions are not compatible with the selected paper size, 
the print usually will not be borderless. For example, if a square image is printed on 4 x 6-
inch paper, it will often print as a 4 x 4 inch image, with white edges on each side of the 
print job.
Corrective Action 2
Crop the image so it is compatible with the selected paper size.
