Photo Printer and Software


I currently have a HP Photosmart 1000 printer. Prints great, problem is you can't format it to print a true borderless 4x6,5x7 or 8x10 photo. My Minolta Dimage 7i comes with viewer only and prints the same; cannot do exact sizes or borderless. Can someone please help me. Also, on my HP printer, when a pic that has a large amount of black in any given area,well, it sticks when placed in a protective sleeve and messes up the photo itself. I need to be able to print my photos the above listed sizes and need them to be borderless. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated....Thank You!

  Im not familiar with your printer and you didn't say what software came with it. I use and epson printer and have several software programs, for printing I find Microsoft Picture It software the easiest to use. But on the sticky prints, I had the same problem, try Ilford smooth pearl paper, Its instant dry with my epson printer, or check the HP website for instant dry papers. If you can't find one that works with your printer try letting them dry for a couple of days before putting them in the sleeves.
