Appendix A –
Borderless Printing: Overspray vs. Oversize
The
MC-Series Print Driver
(
under Printing Preferences
) offers two ways for printing off the edges of
the label/media, sometimes called
"borderless"
or
"full-bleed"
printing. Each option adjusts the
relationship between the image, the selected media size and the actual media on which is it printed, but in
different ways. Each option has advantages and disadvantages, especially for certain types of images.
•
Overspray checkbox:
In the
General Tab
, under the
Media
section.
•
Oversize checkbox:
In the
Custom Sizes
dialog box, under the
Size
section in the
General Tab
of
Print Preferences
.
The following provides details about each option: when to use each, prerequisite setup and other tips for
getting the best result.
OVERSPRAY CHECKBOX
The
Overspray Checkbox
is located in the Printers Printing Preferences, in the
Media
section under the
General Tab
.

Impact of Using Overspray
Selecting the
Overspray checkbox
scales the image beyond the size of the selected media, by adding the
Borderless
default resolution value set in the Driver. The image is stretched to print larger than the actual
size.
For example, if the
Borderless
default setting is
21 (dots)
, then the resultant
Overspray
selection will have
a resolution of
821 dpi
, when printing with the normal resolution of 800. Although this might stretch the
image beyond the edge of the media, (and is quick and easy to select), it may be too distorted to use.
