Why are there blank areas in the Edit menu of my Sony DPP-FP60 Printer?
- A
  Anthony GibbsSep 13, 2025
  If you see blank areas at the top and bottom of the previewed image in the Edit menu, it could be because the image is extremely stretched vertically or horizontally. The standard aspect ratio of an image shot with a digital camera is 3:4. When an image is edited or printed in the P size, it is saved as a more horizontal print image and its top and bottom edges will be cut and displayed in black.

  Jack TaylorSep 12, 2025
  The “Borderless” - “Yes”/“No” setting may not take effect if you are using templates in the Creative Print menu, as these do not allow border/borderless print selection.

Why does my Sony Printer print borders even when set to 'No'?
- R
  Rebecca GonzalezSep 9, 2025
  If your Sony Printer prints borders even when the “Borders” setting is set to “No”, it's likely because the image was previously edited and saved with the “Borders”-“Yes” setting. This saves the image with blank areas included. To print without borders, edit and save the image with the “Borders”-“No” setting.

What to do if Sony DPP-FP60 Printer paper does not feed?
- A
  Angela BradleyAug 23, 2025
  If your Sony Printer isn't feeding paper, it could be due to several reasons. First, ensure you're using the correct print paper designed for the printer and that it's properly loaded in the correct direction in the tray. Make sure you have no more than 20 sheets in the tray, and that the paper isn't bent or folded. Riffle the print paper thoroughly before loading. Also, check for any error messages displayed on the screen. If paper jam occurred, check paper jam.

Why is the file name not displayed correctly on Sony Printer?
- M
  Michael LewisSep 5, 2025
  If the file name isn't displayed correctly on your Sony Printer, it may be due to the file name including characters other than alphanumeric characters. For files created with a PC application, only the first 8 characters of the file name will be displayed.

Why does print paper emerge partially during printing with Sony DPP-FP60?
- A
  Ashley RiveraSep 4, 2025
  The print paper may emerge a few times during printing. Do not touch nor pull the emerged paper. Wait for the print paper to be fully ejected after printing ends. As the print paper emerges from the rear a few times during printing, make sure to spare enough space behind the printer during printing (10 cm or more).
