Digital BW, The Print

Frank, I don't think I read your message correctly--didn't realize that you were trying to print an 8.5 x 11 on an 8.5x11 paper.  This would basically be borderless--but I don't think you mean for that.  If you put it on a white background--the white counts as image--not 'transparent' so that only the 5 x 5 image shows.  Try this same thing in PS--take the image to print/preview and see how it positions the image on the page.  It will tell you that 'larger than the printable area--some clipping will occur'.   I'm not sure why you are only getting a 'line' though.  I would try printing this on some inexpensive paper from PS and see what happens.  I noted that you said you didn't get this when you printed color from the Epson driver.  Did you happen to have borderless and minimize margins chosen in page placement in the driver?

Select only the black square, save that as a gray-matte tiff.  Open that image in QTR--now, you can choose to have it centered on your paper (check cnetered)--or you can drag it to any place on your portrait 8.5 x 11 paper--watch the top/left placement if you have 'center' unchecked.  Now--try printing that.

  How does a small 5x5 inch image placed in the centre of a white 
  8.5x11 inch sheet extend over the printable area of the paper?
