Setting up the Driver for Full-Bleed Printing
Before you print full-bleed labels using a third-party application, you will need to select
the appropriate options in the printer driver.
Note: Driver instructions apply only to printing via third party design applications. If you
are using Custom QuickLabel Omni, this process is not required.
1 Create a custom media size profile for the full-bleed label. See “Setting up a
Custom Label Size” on page 33.
• Width - Define the width as 0.04 to 0.08” (1-2 mm) larger than your label width.
• Height - Define the height as 0.04 to 0.08” (1-2 mm) larger than your label
height.
For example, if your label media is 4 x 6 inches, you might define the media size
as 4.04 x 6.04 inches.
Note: Use the minimum size increase necessary to print your full-bleed label. An
excessive size increase will result in ink being deposited on the liner.
Save the media size profile. You may want to include the specified dimensions as
part of the profile name.
Ensure this size profile is selected in the General tab.
