Items near edge of page cut off when printing

Hi echyone,
Thank you for your feed back, much appreciated.

On my laser printer, Brother 5040, there isn't a option for border-less, on my inkjet, Canon i960, there is. So it is a printer specific option.

I'm pleased it's now printing as you desire.

Sincerely,

Borderless printing is generally reserved for graphics. Your printer may be refusing to treat your text page as a graphics file.

Ultimately, though, it appears you have a printer setting issue, not a Pages issue. Check your print settings or check your printer manual for settings and advice.

Good luck,

Terry

Hi echyone,
It may not be a Pages problem but, a printer issue. Even though your printer states it will print border-less, as previously stated, that's usually reserved for graphics, pictures and the like. My printers do border-less printing as well, but not for text documents be they MS Word or Pages.

Give this a try:
1. In the Inspector set all margins to a zero.
2. In landscape mode do you see a light gray boarder around your paper? That's reserved for non printing area based on your printer.
3. Now do File > Print > Preview, (see borders?),
4. Lower left click Soft Proof, now print your file.

From the Print Help file: Select Soft Proof at the bottom-left corner of the Preview window to take your printer’s capabilities into account.

Hope this helps you.

Sincerely,
RicD

Also, why can I print 1/4" from the top, bottom, and left but only 1/2" from the right?

As you are printing in landscape mode, the right margin is the one corresponding to bottom margins in portrait mode.

For many printers, this margin is greater than the three others.
At least this aspect of your "problem" seems normal.

echyone,

I'm guessing it's because you don't happen to have a printer that allows bleed printing. It's probably imposing its own margins, cutting off some of your images or text.
