I have had this printer a few weeks and love it. The only initial problems were getting the settings right, and then manual loading, a problem helped by Mark Segal (thanks). Only one small problem -- on Ilford 13 x 19, the image comes out hugging one of the longer edges, even though it looks right in the gridded setup. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong ? I have the setting at Super A3/B, Thanks. Geoffrey James

Try the paper setting Super A3 sheet maximum. That should fix it. If it doesn't let us know. I assume you have "centered" checked in the Photoshop Print GUI.

After I had left the house, I realized I hadn't specified the program, which is Lightroom 2, which came with the Leica M9. Duh ! Thanks, Mark, I will try it out. It works perfectly with 17x24 paper, though.

On the Print Dialogue there is a button "Printable Area" select "Maximum and Centered". This printer is new to me and I am still only printing 8.5 x 11 and found this solved the centering problem. I would like to know if this works on the larger papers. I set up a preset with this and selecting preset then paper does not override the settings whereas the Quality High Speed Off will get overridden by paper selection.

Sheet-Maximum in the Epson driver and Centered in the Photoshop Print dialog works for me with 13*19 inch and 17*22 inch sheets as well.

Is that using the Printable Area Button?

I don't see a "printable area button" in the Mac version of the Photoshop Print Preview or the Epson 4900 driver. I select "Centered" in the Photoshop Print dialog and "Sheet-maximum" in the Epson driver, and that produces centered prints, any sheet size.
