Can't get 8.5 x 11 paper recognized

« on: December 14, 2017, 04:23:26 AM »

Qimage Ultimate v 218.112
Win 7 Pro with latest updates
VMware Fusion on iMac High Sierra
Canon Pro-100 printer - latest driver installed

I have the printer driver set to 8.5 x 11" paper
I have QI set to 8.5 x 11" Media size
The text above the page preview shows, "Page: 8.000 x 10.68 in.
(600 x 600)" and the way 4-inch prints are laid out, it is indeed 8x10.685. I would expect it to show the media/paper size selected which is 8.5 x 11".

Where did I go wrong? Screen shots attached.
Thank you!

'Page' in QI is the printable area, ie paper size minus margins, so your readings are correct. You need the 'Borderless' option in the driver if you want to use the full area, it may help to turn 'Borderless Overspray' off in Edit>Preferences>Print and Page Formatting.
