    That is dependent on your printer, not PS. The printer must have full-bleed printing capability. That means it is capable of printing right to the edge of the sheet.
    What printer have you got?

    After reviewing the User Guide for this printer, borderless printing is not possible. All models of the "All-In-One" by Lexmark don't allow printing in the edges of a page (top, bottom, left or right).

    Re: Printing without the write border?

    I'm afraid that mikishots is correct. From their manual (pg.51):

    Print quality is poor at the edges of the page
    Like other All-In-Ones, your All-In-One cannot print in the extreme left,
    right, top, or bottom edges of a page. Use these minimum settings:
    • Left and right margins:
    – 6.35 mm (0.25 in.) each for all paper sizes except A4
    – 3.37 mm (0.133 in.) each for A4 size paper
    52
    • Top margin:
    1.7 mm (0.067 in.)
    • Bottom margin:
    16.51 mm (0.65 in.)

    From what I read, the 5200 series printer (I think it is called the 5250) DOES print borderless, but not the 5150. I did a quick search of Lexmark 5150 and borderless on Google. It seems that some web sites state that the 5150 can do borderless, however Lexmark's own literature states that it cannot. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
