Borderless Printing UIPrintInteractionController

Question

I am working on an iPhone application using the concept of an image for printing using the UIPrintInteractionController . I am stuck at one point, that is, border , whenever I tried to print any image using a printer, it always shows the border on all sides, which is not required. The image should use the full size of the paper, as I give the image the same size as the width and height of the paper, but at the same time it shows the border.

I did not find any method to remove the border or reduce the border of the paper contents. See iPhone image

You can see in the attached image , In this I am trying to print an image from a Mac system in which it gives the opportunity for border and border less.

I think it should be present in the UIPrintInteractionController infrastructure but didn’t find anyone.

Please help me if someone has experienced this.

Thanks in advance. Your help will be appreciated.

Answer 1

If you want to eliminate any boundaries, you could quickly achieve this by passing photo outputType to the printInfo object:

 let printController = UIPrintInteractionController.shared printController.printingItem = someImage printController.showsPaperSelectionForLoadedPapers = true let printInfo = UIPrintInfo.printInfo() printInfo.outputType = .photo printController.printInfo = printInfo

Now, if you need more control over the final rendering, you can check out the Apple sample regarding the UIPrintInteractionController

Objective-C version

 UIPrintInteractionController *printController = [UIPrintInteractionController sharedPrintController]; printController.printingItem = someImage; controller.showsPaperSelectionForLoadedPapers=YES; UIPrintInfo *printInfo = [UIPrintInfo printInfo]; printInfo.outputType = UIPrintInfoOutputPhoto; printController.printInfo = printInfo;
