Setting the label size and paper layout for borderless print-
ing
This section describes the concepts and settings methods for using Epson printer drivers to perform borderless
printing.
Borderless Printing Concepts
We recommend that you set this printer for margins of 1.5 mm on all sides to prevent the print from extend-
ing outside of the label.
When performing borderless printing, the ink may extend outside of the label due to the printing area being
extended to the edges of the label. For this reason, use media with matrix so that ink extending from the label
will not adhere to the backing paper.
Try to prevent ink from getting onto the backing paper of the label paper (printing that extends out-
side of the label) as much as possible. Ink adhering to and dirtying labels or hands can become
adhered to the inside of the printer, resulting in a malfunction.
Due to the printer structure, a slight margin may remain at the top or bottom edge even if the length
of the media layout label is the same length as the label. The following preparation and settings are
necessary to correct this error.
Media layout settings for the printer driver: Extend the printable area.
Printer settings: Correct the print start position.
Label paper: Use media with a gap between labels that is 4 mm or more.
