Hi Jack!

      I print like that now, though I didn't before.  It looks neat and
clean.  Presentation of an image is very subjective and changes with
the current fashion, anyway.  Plus, if there are very light areas at
the edges of the image, the black thin borders define the image and
separate it from the white paper surround which I also leave.

Cheers,
