Edge of image does not print

[eppy]

I have tried many combinations of parameters, but I cannot get an 8x10 photo printed at the right size on letter paper when the photos have a narrow outline created by Layer Effects.   Parts of the border are not printed.

For Example: I have a flat photo resized to 10"x8" inch at 300dpi.  I use layer effects to add a narrow inner outline.  I print on  a Canon pixma MG7720.  Parts of the outline are not printed.

I use these parameters: Check  Borderless printing  (does not seem to affect outcome)

In AP paper size is set to custom(8x10)   

Pixma page setup tab:  Page size custom(8x10). Printer page size "letter"    Page layout:  Scaled (100%)

Hi Eppy,

If possible could your provide the afphoto file in question so I can test this issue on one of our printers here?

Thanks

Here is my example.

I'm curious why, if you're printing on letter paper, you're telling Affinity Photo that it's 8x10 paper? Shouldn't you tell both Affinity Photo and the printer the truth about the paper size?

Walt Farrell,

I buy my photo paper online and Canon and HP offer bargains on that size.    I want exact 8X10 prints in order to fit them into standard frames.   Also I have tried various combinations of letter and 8x10 specifications in the print dialogues without success. 

P.S.  Eventually I will resize the photos in order to leave white space around  the framed print and to allow the printed border to show up more.

Thanks. So you're not printing "on letter paper" as you first said, and you're not telling the printer that the page size is "letter" as you said. That's what was confusing me.

As suggested to Walt I resized (to 9x7.2 inch) so that there was plenty of room for the picture  -- the printout looks great and the printed image is as specified (9x7.2)

 

AP dialogue Layout Paper size "custom"  (8x10)

Canon Page Setup Tab:

Page Size: Custom(8x10),

Canon Printer Paper Size: Letter (8.5x11)   Note that in Canon Page Size is different from Printer Paper Size.

Page Layout: scaled (100%)

It appears to me now that the AP dialog Paper Size refers to  Canon Page Size  and not to Canon Printer Paper Size.  This is what caused my initial confusion
