Printing with a boarder vs no boarder, which is best?

I have a Pro-100 printer, and I'm wondering which option is best for making prints of artwork and photos. Boarder VS Boarderless?

I personally like borders.

As Rick says, i also like borders. It makes the image look like it is matted, particularly in Lightroom hen you can apply a stroke border - looks like the bevel in a mat board.

 

If you print borderless the printer will over print to be sure the paper is fully covered, so you will lose some of your image.

 

Ultimately, it depends on your final use. the answer that works for me might not work for you.
