Print Area in Power Point

Guest

I'm trying to print a custom sized (5.75"x7.75") PP slide on a custom sized (5.75"x7.75") sheet of paper. The slide contains images that span the entire length of the sheet (edge to edge). When I print the page on my HP PSC2210 color printer, it's prints with some sort of margin, so I don't get the edge to edge printing I desire.

Any help??

This is a function of your printer and it's software drivers, not
PowerPoint. If your printer is able to print edge to edge on the paper
(special size), then you should be able to do this from within PowerPoint.
If, for some odd reason this does not function as you would like, you could
also try sending the slides to Word and print from there.

Almost all consumer-quality inkjet printers require a non-printed margin to
enable the printer mechanism to grasp the paper and push it thru the
machine. To make it a little more difficult, they usually also have an
en-even margin, with a small margin at the top and a large margin at the
bottom.

That's a personal multi-function (print, scan, copy, fax) inkjet printer and
though it claims to print borderless 4X6 photos, my guess is that it is not
otherwise an edge to edge printer.
