How to print on 13x19 size paper?

I have a Canon i9900 which is capable of printing on large paper, made a collage of pictures/quotes in various programs, changing paper size to 13x19 in both program and printer set up. Keep getting message that printer is unable to print that size. Dowloaded new drivers, no help. Any ideas??How to print on 13x19 size paper?
Hi



Make sure the software you are using is set to Large format. If you installed the correct drivers , when you go to the preferences or page layout, you should see Super B which is the 13x19 or Large format setting.



Secondly, you can print borderless on 13 x 19 and for borderless printing, you can use a slider to specify how far to enlarge the image to cover the page borders. However, it lacks an interactive preview, so you won't be able to see where the new image borders will lie.



You can print 12 x 18 full bleed. This will give you a 1/4'; margin all around but it's better than nothing LOL.



Also, set the correct orientation of your paper. Usually in large format, you have to use landscape in your graphic software. Then use the printer settings to print it in portrait.



The main problem is your software and not the printer. Finally, the drawback to this printer is that it can reliably feed only one 13 x 19 at a time.How to print on 13x19 size paper?
In borderless printing, margins in the printable area are set to 0 mm. (The paper sizes usable with borderless printing are A4, Letter, 4';x6';, and 5';x7'; only.)

Other wise you will load your paper the same way
Make sure that in all your settings and page layouts you have your sizing set to super B3.
