Background picture sized to cover A4 size papper when printing?

[Guest]

I am trying to create a paper folder by using powerpoint.

I would like the background picture to cover the total A4 paper size,
how can I do that? It looks like it does on the screen show, but not when I
am printing !

When I am choosing preview or printing it always ends up with a small
white border around the picture?

Is it possible to takeaway this border?

Thanks, Misa

The white border is caused by your printer, not by Powerpoint. Most printers
cannot print all the way to the edge of the page... there is almost always
some amount of non-printable area on each side of the page.

Misa,

Does your printer explicitly say that it can print right to all the edges?

That is a printer constraint. Most printers are not able to "print to edge" or
do borderless printing. Check all of the options available on your printer and
documented in the user manual. You may find that your printer has this
capability.
