Title: 5 x 7 prints coming out at 5 x 6.875?
Post by: Phil in Ottawa on June 11, 2014, 07:46:14 PM
Hi,

I'm trying to print 5 x 7 prints on 8 1/2 x 11 paper on a Canon Pro9000 MarkII (Qimage reports the print area is 8.000 x 10.685).

My photos have all been cropped to a 5 x 7 aspect ratio. I have the Print Properties set at 5.00 x 7.00 with a first border set to 0.125 and the location of the border inside the selected print size. Auto cropping is OFF. I am printing the crop marks.

When I print, the prints (2 per page) are coming out 5.000 x 6.875 (measuring from crop mark to crop mark) instead of 5 x 7 and I have no idea why.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Phil,
Turn Auto crop back on!
...
Your aspect ratio isn't 5 x 7, so you need the auto crop on.
