    So if it doesn't specify it, why did you assume that it offered that function?
    There is no legal right to a return unless the goods are faulty.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    To be honest its naivity on my part.
    The last and only printer I have had was a HP Photosmart which allowed borderless printing and I just assumed that all printers would have a borderless option.

    Not a common function on a £25 AIO printer I'm afraid.

  • Unfortunately I know that now.

    Those good people at Tesco's refunded me my cash and off i've been to Currys and bought a Canon Pixma MP272 for the same price and hey presto full page photo's.

    Thanks for your help Santer.

    Maybe if you offered to replace the ink cartridges

    Canon have released their MP280, no major differences, Amazon have that for £36 delivered and the inks are £20 currently a set, against £37 a set for the MP270

    If you are unable to exchange the HP perhaps you could offer it for sale privately.

    Epson printers have the better availability for compatibles, and a similarly specced printer from them is £40 with compatible inks at £4 a set

    Good luck

    Thanks for letting us know
  • Fortunately i didn't impulse buy this at tesco like you did and came back to do my research.We are looking for a printer at the moment and i instantly noticed the lack of a borderless printer.You also apparently according to my geek boyfriend never get a cable included now.No idea where to start.He is a canon fan but wasn't happy with my last one.Two expensive for me too run for a start.That was partially my fault for getting carried away when buying.
