Abstract

A printing method includes printing an image on a sheet with a printhead, detecting an edge of the printed image in a widthwise direction of the sheet, and performing borderless printing, based on the detection result, to make a margin amount in the widthwise direction become not more than a predetermined value so as to prevent the image from being formed outside of the sheet in the widthwise direction.
