Hello,
Whenever I send something to my printer, the margins may look even in Lightroom (say .5" all around), but they don't print that way. Depending on what method I use, they might print with a larger border on the bottom, or on the side. I've tried a few different techniques to try and get around this.
1. Page setup: A3+, Borderless.
Lightroom print module: Margins .5"
Cell size is automatically set to 11.96 x 18.01
*If I print borderless though, it's not really accurate since you have to account for the bleed.
Here's a picture of how the borders come out uneven.
2. Page setup: A3+ Non Borderless (Ideally, would be best)
Lightroom print module: Margins .5"
It seems to show up fine in Lightroom, again, just prints uneven.
Here's the same problem with an 8.5 x 11" photo (.25" border) and the same thing happens. Left side and bottom borders are smaller than the top and right side borders.
This is what acutally prints:
I have a feeling it may have something to do with the relationship between the cell size and the margin measurements.
One other thing. I just upgraded to the pro-100 from the pro9000 mkII and it's a similar problem. I thought it may have been the printer which is one of the reasons I upgraded.
This also seems to happen when I'm printing 4x6 images. The margins print uneven.
Thank in advance for your help!
