Epson L800 Experience

If I select "legal", which is 8.5 X14 inches, the "borderless" option disappears. So you suggest I create a user defined size equal to 8.5 X 14?

Yes, with the borderless option checked you can choose 8.5 inches wide and 14 inches long. Also remember that the driver won't let you print borderless with the plain paper media type.

You can get around it by creating a user defined size, since borderless capability is based on width and not length.

that's what I thought as well, and I tried it - it does not work

Oh it definitely works, I just tried it on my L805:

Ignore the profiling pattern, this was scrap 13x19 paper I cut down to 8.5x14.

Fine, Epson then improved the firmware over the L800, the borderless option is grayed out on my printer with a custom format 8.5 x 14"

Hey, Taksmon! That worked! Thanks a bunch.

It looks like I have to make the user defined size 8.5 X 14.1 The last millimeter (the trailing edge of the print) didn't print. It also looks like I can print borderless any length I want, up to 44". YAY! Thanks again.

I started with borderless checked and an 8.5 X 11 media size selected. Then, I changed the size to 14"

What Profile do you use for this printer with Red River Paper.

I'm not using Red River paper, I'm doing profiles on my own, with X-Profile Maker for the papers I'm using currently
