Title: Floating Text Option on borderless (3 sides) prints
Post by: Grandphoto on September 29, 2019, 01:27:41 PM
Hi Fred,

This is the "other Fred" again, remember, we're related!

I've gone through my printed Q-image manual and have been trying for several hours to accomplish the following.

I need to print multiple (different) photos on 8.5" x 11.0".  They need to be borderless on the top, left, and right, but there needs to be a 1/2" or 3/4" border at the bottom so I can print the name of the photo (what it is) using the floating text option.

I am using a Canon TS9520 printer and also a Canon Pro 9500 Mark II printer.

Is there a way to get this done?  I would really appreciate your help and expertise.

Thank you,

Fred (Grandphoto)i

There are several ways to do this.  The easiest would be:

  • Select IntelliCut placement using the placement button under the Live View
  • Click Properties on the Printers and Settings tab and set your printer driver to borderless mode
  • Select a thumbnail
  • On the Prints tab, choose Custom size, Specific Size, and enter 8.5 x 10.5 as the size

You will then have an 8.5 x 10.5 print at the top of an 8.5 x 11 inch page.  The other way would be to use "Fit to Page" size and then right click on the print and add a Photo Mat with a half inch border only on the side you want.

Regards,
Mike

Maybe another MAC owner can pop in here and tell us how to play MP4s on a MAC

Fred,

I'll forgive you, if you can explain how I can move a file with notation from Q-image to my Email folder so I can send the completed file to another Email address.

Mike, followed your instructions and all is good here.  I printed out the Q-image manual and can't find my Email issue answered.  I have a photo which has the notation at the bottom, but how can I move it to another folder and not lose the notation (which seems to be happening).
