Looking for a suggestion on borderless printing with different paper dimensions.
Hi,
I need a color printer capable of borderless printing for various paper dimensions. My current setup with the Canon TR8520 supports two sizes but not both at once, which limits flexibility. For example, I print postcards (5x7/4x6), cards, fliers, or posters (8 1/2 x 11). I want to stay under $350 while maintaining quality.
I have a Canon TR8520 that supports these two options, but not simultaneously.
Unless the printer uses multiple paper trays, it might be hard to satisfy this need.
Most printing applications and printers let users pick the desired paper size or tray directly.
The printer needs proper configuration settings for colors, fonts, borders, and paper size.
You might set a default print mode based on your usual use and adjust it for other jobs.
Ideally, the printer should be able to handle both tasks at once.
It still requires clear instructions on which tray to use when starting a print job.
These are my thoughts on the situation.
Unless the printer uses multiple paper trays, it might be hard to satisfy the need.
Instead of trays, I’m using a sheet feeder with physical guides that let me work with various paper dimensions.
Most printing software and printers let users pick the exact paper size they want or choose from a tray.
I’m unsure if this works for every device, but my Canon lets me set a custom width. However, when I opt for borderless printing, the custom width isn’t available.
I’m trying to find a printer that meets all these conditions: borderless printing, custom paper width, and a sheet feeder.
Your thoughts on this would be very helpful.
It would be extremely challenging to configure a printer to output ink specifically at the edges of a particular sheet dimension. Your message indicates that printers can achieve this for only a limited range of sheet sizes. Keep in mind that this also implies the tray feeding needs to be highly accurate to ensure the edges are precisely positioned.
