i'm getting correct height (14") but the width is only 9". Can't get any wider. I'm using single image/contact sheet. In layout, under cell size am putting in desired height and width. When I choose custom package it prints borderless but I can't figure out how to adjust dimensions to 11 x 14.

Thank you.

I might suggest-

1) Crop image to 11x14

2) LR Page Setup:

Set Printer to "Borderless" (for 11" image on 11" paper width.)

Set Paper to 11x17"

3) LR Image Settings:

Uncheck [Zoom to Fill]

Set Margins all to '0'

Set Cell Size to maximums.

My screen-clip of settings:

Your post header says- "printing 11x14 image"

So your options are-

1) Crop the image to 11x14 ratio, or

2) Check on [Zoom to Fill] and let the cell size in Layout (11x14") crop the image.

If your photo is NOT cropped and is in the ratio of 9x14, then this is the same ratio as the paper 11x17. (9x14 = 11x17.111111)

So you would have to print the FULL paper size 11x17 to get the FULL photo as 11x17.

Your photo and paper are different ratios and you have to work around that!
