When printing to an Epson R1800 have a problem

When printing from Illustrator CS to an Epson R1800 the image gets enlarged to approximately 103% Epson said to check the default margins but that did not help. I am running a G4 with OS X.5.6 The problem i think started after going from X.4 to X.5. But can't swear to that. I have the latest print driver from epson. Also in Illustrator when when printing there is no plain paper option available. I have re- installed the drivers and ICC profiles but no help. Thank you

Make sure the paper size is not set to US letter sheetfeeder borderless use just US letter. the borderless function slightly enlarges document content to ensure that it bleeds overthe edge. If your has a bleed, use in page setup - US letter sheetfeeder borderless - In the print dialog box click printer button which brings up a warning about using a different settings dialog box, - continue on to the r1800 print dialog box. about midway down is a pull down menu - choose expansion and adjust it to the lowest setting. if your printout does not bleed to the edge bump the expansion adjustment up 1 measure.

Epson R1800 On Print Preview of a photograph

I print with the R1800 as well as the 24" 7880 in my studio. Whenever the "preview" shows less than the whole image I intend to print it is generally either the orientation (portrait/landscpe) is set incorrectly or the Paper size selected is incorrect for the size of the print.

Hope this helps

I just had the same problem -- go to epson.com and look under drivers and support. Select the R1800 and go to FAQS, there it will tell you how to resolve a driver issue that can cause this.
