I believe it is. Checking, yes. If that is the correct size, and its truly borderless when selected as "tabloid(borderless)", if the paper guidance can be improved, that would be ideal as when I trimmed it up and put it on a big sheet of light plywood this morning, I was trimming about 1/2" from all 4 edges on average. And it was set for "A3(borderless)" at the time. What size in our antiquated inch system is A3? I have too many projects underway. Waiting on some mahogany that won't warp like crazy when the Saran wrap comes off for starters. And I am just beginning to make all the pieces to CNC an old Sheldon 11x36 metal lathe. I had some wall reinforcement installed along with improved drainage in the basement, so everthing is piled in the middle of the floor while I get around to putting additional insulation on the walls before I move all the shelving and contents back to a reasonable facsimile of where they were. With my bad back, thats going to be slow as I engineer how to move stuff thats beyond my ability to pick up and carry, some of which will go out a 2 by 3 window about 5'6" up and into a trash trailer. And someplace in the middle of all that is a full sized pool table I'd like to use again. If I can bend over far enough to run a cue stick. > Regards, > jvp. Thanks JVP.
