Evening,
Yes I am using an HP Z3100 24 inch and from all the kind people here added I guess I must make sure each time I print that I set the HP driver to Borderless
. Sorry seems a bit odd to me for some reason and not really sure I can explain why kinda like looking at a word you have spoken and written thousands of times, but it still does not look right when it stares back from the page!
Anyway I will try the borderless option as suggested while I wait for my new rip software to be delivered.
Thanks to all for the suggestions and humor!
Derek
Derek,
Borderless is required in order to have the room for 16" from the 16 x 20 and the 8" from the 8 x 10 to fit inside the 24" paper size. Other wise the driver reports 23.75 x 26.75 as printable area and there isn't enough printable are to accommodate the three.
With borderless set to on, we pick up the extra print room needed on the page. You then have 16" + 8" which will fit inside of 24"
There is another way to do it without borderless.
Insert a print 16 x 20 into the queue.
Then click the little "F" top right of the preview panel. That puts you in freehand mode.
Using the mouse, drag the large image toward the top left corner, leaving room at the bottom to add two more 8 x10s.
Now, deselect the prints (right mouse on the preview panel) and then set print size to 8 x 10.
Manually drag the two images that will be 8 x 10 prints onto the preview screen, and position to suit your taste. A little salt and pepper, and print!!

No need to use borderless all the time, only when your sizes of prints will not fit.
As to the Z3100, I will leave the tricks and tips, tweaks and stuff to Ernst Dinkla and Tom Kruger.
Hope this helps.
