Appropriate printer for tiny bottom margin
Hi - I have a word mailmerge doc picking up data from a unix host and
printing to custom size card (130mm x 206mm) in landscape. Print content (inventory card) is simply graphic lines & text - all black. I need the bottom margin to be 2mm max as the cards sit in display folders with a tiny viewing area at base. Hoping that someone here has come across a printer (probably inkjet?) that can achieve this. I've spoken to Canon & Epson here in Australia without much luck. I don't think borderless printing is the answer - or at least I haven't managed to make the document print as required doing that. Anyone done anything similar or have a theory answer or experience of a specialist printer that'll do it? Thanks in anticipation, Ian. |

Appropriate printer for tiny bottom margin
On a laser printer you *might* be able to trick the printer into printing
closer to the edge by defining the paper size as larger than it actually is. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "Ian" wrote in message ...
