Question

Can't print borderless in Adobe apps since Mac OS upgrade

I've lost the borderless page option sizes when printing to my Canon Pixma from any Adobe apps - Acrobat / Photoshop / Illustrator - after upgrading to Mac OS 14.4.1. I've installed the latest printer driver but it looks like the problem is with Adobe as the borderless options are available with all other apps. Any suggestions on how to solve the problem would be much appreciated. Thanks...

On iOS 15, it's the same. Adobe Acrobat does not allow printing A4 borderless. I have to export the PDF to images and then print them borderless

Updating to Mac OS 14.5 fixed the same issue for me. Hope that helps?

I'm on 14.5 but still can't enable borderless.   In Lightroom Classic, "Print Settings" dialog contains a section for "Printer Options",  within that section is "Borderless Printing".   That brings up a dialog where you can specify the "amount of extension", but it's disabled.  In the Lightroom Print settings, I have the margins all set to zero.  It it matters, I'm using an ICC profile.

Yup, exact same problem here. It's a shame because printing is integral to our business and not being able to print borderless is a BIG issue. A bit frustrating that issues like this come up. Hopefully theres an end in sight. We have a print backlog building up now.

Borderless printing is managed by the printer driver and not by any application. Generally, they scale the page that is sent to the printer by a tiny amount. When you select a page size that is A4, you should expect the printer to print A4 and not A4+.

Hi there

 

Thanks for reaching out. Please update the application to the recent version 24.02.20687 from the help menu > check for updates and reboot the computer once and see if that works.

 

Let us know how it goes.

Amal and Jennifer

I have exactly the same issue. Can print borderless in any app apart from Adobe; specifically Lightroom Classic and Photoshop (both on latest revisions. The suggested workaround does not work, at least in Photoshop as setting the deisred size and margins does not equate to borderless. Setting size larger and zero margins is still restricted by the border imposed by the print setup, where borderless has recently disappeared.

I could print borderless before so I don't see the way the printer was added makes any difference, and in the case of the Canon Pixma TS704 I have, there are no options on how the printer is added. The only changes have been moving to another Mac OS, and in my case it was most likely the move to Sonoma from Ventura., and various updates to Photoshop and Lightroom Classic. 

I hope this helps? Need a solution desperately.

I haven't received any suggestions on how to solve the problem. But Adobe has just sent me an email saying...

"Did it solve your problem? Click here to view the replies and mark one correct."

So how do I mark one correct when there aren't any that solved the problem?

Shouldn't there be some way of escalating the query?

I also have the exact same problem. Reported it to Apple, we'll see if there's a fix. It's super-annoying!

I also notice that it is only happening in Adobe apps. In non-Adobe apps, I have 58 paper size choices including all of the borderless choices. In Adobe apps, I only have 14 paper size choices, with zero borderless choices. All after I updated to OS 14.4.1 on a Mac Mini (M1 2020) — it was fine right before the update this morning.
