ABSTRACT:
Ink jet printing apparatus for forming a borderless image on a receiver in response to a digital image file having a digital image and the desired size of the image to be formed, including an ink jet print bar for delivering ink to the receiver and disposed at an image transfer position. The apparatus moves the receiver along a path onto a platen past the ink jet print bar at the image transfer position; a receiver detector unit disposed adjacent to the path for detecting the leading edge of the receiver prior to its moving to the image transfer position; a receiver cutter for cutting the receiver to an appropriate size; and control circuitry responsive to the digital image file for determining the appropriate size of the borderless image on the receiver and for actuating the ink jet printer to cause an ink image to be formed on the receiver as it moves past the image transfer position and for actuating the receiver cutter to cut the receiver so a borderless image is formed on the receiver.
