Question
Hi, I'm trying to print my wedding invites from Photoshop on card that is 142mm x 142mm. I can set the custom size in the printer settings, but I can't seem to print them 'borderless', Each time i select this option, it overwrites my 'custom size' to the default size options. Not sure if it's my printer? It's a Canon one.

Thanks

Answer
Hi Kathryn,

Photoshop has options for many printers and types of output, it's possible your printer is changing the settings because it cannot print borderless.

Check the printer manual and make sure you've installed the latest driver for your printer. This will be available at the Canon website.

Hope this helps,
