Hi Robert,

I also think, the driver, in this case the 
HP-PhotoSmart_d7200_Series-hpijs.ppd, should be modificated.

It's a little bit funny, that just a bug in gimp-gutenprint 5.0.2 supports a 
feature of my printer, the ppd file doesn't.

Until modification of the hpijs-ppd file I benefit from that "bug" and let the 
gutenprint stuff to version 5.0.2.

Thanks for your helpfulness.

@David Suffield,
the HPLIP project is a great one, because a lot of Printing, Faxing and 
Scanning hardware of your company is supported with it under Linux. I'm very 
glad with that project, this is the main reason, why I've here only HP 
Printers, a Laserjet 1300, a Deskjet 5550 and a Photosmart D7260. I hope, all 
the hpijs-ppd files of that printers, which supports borderless 
foto-printing, will be modificated.

Thank you for your support.

With best regards,
  Holger
