Print borderless photos

photo size.
Guidelines
• For high-quality results, use a
photo print cartridge in combination with the tri-color
print cartridge.
• Do not print borderless photos in ink-backup mode. Always have two print cartridges
installed in the printer.
For more information, see
Ink-backup mode.
• Open the file in a software program such as HP Photosmart Software and resize the
photo. Ensure that the size corresponds to the paper size that you want to use.
• For maximum fade resistance, use HP Premium Plus Photo Paper.
• Verify that the photo paper that you are using is flat. For information about preventing
photo paper from curling, see the
photo paper storage instructions.
• Do not exceed the input tray capacity: 30 sheets of photo paper.
