I am printing via wi-fi. There seem to be two options when setting this 
up, one uses ipp everywhere and the other says something about 
driverless cups-filters 1.27.2 and I've tried both and neither print 
borderless and I've been unable to find any obvious option. There is 
nothing about print scaling on the ipp one but I've just noticed one for 
print scaling on the driverless which allows several options Automatic, 
Auto-Fit, Fill, Fit and None so I'll try these in the morning and see 
what happens. I'd guess on Fill first. What I dont understand is why 
they don't simply have Borderless?
