Unwanted edge/border when printing

[Metteer]

I have both Affinity Photo and Affinity Publisher. The printing I do will go either on a mug, t-shirt, or harder substrate all of which will be printed with sublimation.  Affinity Photo, it was suggested is a very fine software offering quality prints, thus my reasoning for having it.  I also print on an Epson WF7720 Printer.  My question is using Affinity Photo, what are the procedures/steps for printing no border of any kind when printing the picture etc.❓ I am only interested in seeing the finished picture with subject, background, and or text no frame.  Is this possible to do this, and if so please how is it done❓ Thank You, Dick

Welcome to the forum dick,

Is it possible to give us an example of what you want as a screenshot?

Hi,

There was no solution so I decided to refresh the topic.

I have just printed something directly from the Publisher on my LaserJet and have also a white frame (actually only right and lower border parts). Printing with enabled Clip Transparency did not change anything. Converting picture to Picture Frame also changed nothing. Looks like some scaling problem because the same picture scaled a bit differently had no frame.

On the  Preview Mode and on exported PDF there is no any border so it is even harder to find the final result.

Thanks,

Jacek

Just printed this from my HP Officejet Pro 8620 and no lines.

If you print the pdf from Acrobat Reader do you get the print without the border?

Edit - Okay I wasn't paying attention, that print on the left must be from the pdf.

Generally speaking printing from Affinity isn't the best, there's been lots of issues and little bugs around since the start.

The whole page was printed from Affinity - both animals are on the same page. The left has no border maybe because it has different scaling.
When printing from Acrobat Reader there is no border, the same as on the PDF view on a screen.

Hmm, that is even more strange.

Would be interesting to see if other Epson printers and other HP give similar results as I would suspect it has more to do with printer software/drivers than Affinity.
