Why does the print come back this way? Help

I've been sending for prints through Aperture. And I posted here before with no difference of result following the reply.
See the picture exapmple here.
I get the prints back and the all have white borders onboth edges. I've tried setting a crop to 4x5 and then order a 4x5 or 8x10, I still get the borders. Right up to 16x20.
I removed all adjustements on the photos and send for prints and I still get the borders.
The example you will see is a Nikon D50 NEF exported as a JPG from Aperture. All adjustements removed.
The second is a scan of the same photo that I got as the print. White borders.
Any ideas. All my photos I've had Aperture print through have come back this way. And I've spent about $300 US already.
The export from Aperture all adjustments removed

I'd guess that if you crop to 4x5, and then print on 2x3 (which is the standard format most minilabs use) you'll have to live with the borders.
Try cropping an image 2x3 (which is about the crop of your sensor) and then print again.
Also, export your image as a jpeg and use another print service for a test.
Finally, maybe there's a setting somewhere in Aperture which sets the borders on Prints done through the Apple print service (which is fulfilled by, I believe, Kodak). Thus, trash your Aperture prefs (which of course kills all your personalised settings except for registration info) and try again.
Cheers,
Karl

    In Firefox 3.6 and later on Windows you can hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu on a toolbar.
    Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
    Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

  • Why does the keyboard come up a second time on the ipad

    Why does the keyboard come up a second time on the ipad

    Try these basic things and see if the keyboard goes away for good.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Quit the Kindle App and restart. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by e tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Why does the screen turn back on when the brightness is turned down?

    Hi,
    I bought a macbook pro (Mac OS X 10.6.8), and just recently last week when i turn the brightness down to black, after a couple minutes later the screen turns back on. Then when i touch the trackpad then it goes back to black. Is there any way where i can change this setting??? because this didn't happen before and now it just constantly occurs.

    Seems that some process is calling it back.
    If I shut down via the log in screen it turn's off. What gives?
    Probably a process in your account and not systemwide.
    Go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. BShutdown and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Test.
    EDIT: Also, unmount & disconnect all peripherals except Apple keyboard & mouse.

  • Why does the print module and export lose my develop settings, specifically sharpening?

    I am using LR v4.4  When i switch between develop and library/print or try to export, the file loses the sharpening changes.  This just started happening so i feel like i might have accidently changed a setting.  Please help.  I need to send edited files to clients.

    It could be just a lag in the updating of the thumbnail shown in the Library. Wait a few seconds and see if it updates.
    Since what you see in the Library is just a thumbnail, the data being exported comes from elsewhere and is recalculated each time you do the export.

  • Why does the print cue window stay open even after job is done?

    In Tiger, and every other version of OSX I have any recollection of using, the printer window opens to display what's in the cue when you select to print something. Once printing is done, this cue closes. Since installing Leopard, everytime we print from our iMac, MacBook or MBP, the print cue window stays open indefinitely after the job is done, requiring a manual closing of the window. I can't for the life of me fathom what benefit this brings or who would want this. Is this part of Leopard or a problem with our install? Something I can turn off?

    If you control-click (or right click) on the open printer queue in the Dock you can choose to have it auto close once the spool file is sent.
    As to why this is necessary in Leopard, well I haven't seen a good enough answer to date...

  • Photosmart 5520 Why does the printer always run a blank sheet before it makes a copy?

    My Photosmart 5520 always runs a blank sheet before it runs the copy/copies.  Is there a setting I can change?

    Hello Camille33,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand your Photosmart 5520 runs a blank sheet of paper before you copy a document. I will do my best to assist you! Just to clarify are you printing a document from your computer or copying a document directly from your printer?
    If so, then please make sure this printer is plugged into a direct wall, not a surge protector. I want to see if this makes a difference. Next, try resetting the printer for more than 60 seconds. Leave the printer turned on, then disconnect the power cord.
    Make sure the firmware is up to date on this printer. I will provide the HP website where you can find this download here.
    I will be looking forward to hearing back from you. Have a great night!

  • Why does the printer suddenly wake up and make noises and the tray moves but not printing?

    It behaves as if it is about to print something but nothing there to print. It is connected wirelessly. It is rather eerie.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Some printers will wake themselves up on a regular basis to calibrate the print heads or to clean the toner components.
    You usually can't entirely disable this feature because it's an important way to maintain the printer health. Depending on the printer you can sometimes change how often this maintenance is done.

  • Help! All-in-One Printer/Scanner: why does the printer work when the scanner doesn't?

    I have a Mac OS X 10.8.1, brand new.  I want to connect my Lexmark X2480 all-in-one printer and scanner to it. 
    I have downloaded both drivers from the lexmark website, printing works fine.  However, I am trying to use image capture to scan, the device is recognised but when I click "scan" image capture says "scanner not available" and the device disappears from the list until I unplug it and plug it back in again.
    On "Print and Scan" under "System Preferences" it lists the printer as Idle, however, clicking on "Open Scanner" opens the window but it is completely grey and all the buttons are in grey.
    I don't understand what is wrong (as the printer is working it's unlikely to be the cable or the hardware) I am new to Mac, is there something I am missing?
    Any help would be really appreciated!! (P.S. I have tried to restart my computer and it didn't change anything)

    Install the Image Capture scan driver here.
    If you're planning to scan using the control panel of your printer, download the scan center here.

  • Why does the foward and back button no longer show page history ?

    the older version of mozilla/firefox you had the option of seeing previous pages beside the foward and back buttons. rather than going back to each page. also the web pages that were suggested for your search let you know if the web page or site good or bad.

    The arrow to open the tab history of the Back and Forward buttons has been removed in Firefox 4 and later.
    Use one of these methods to open the tab history list:
    * Right click on the Back or Forward button
    * Hold down the left mouse button on the enabled Back or Forward button until the list opens
    You can look at this extension:
    * Backward Forward History Dropdown: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforedrop/
