Indesign printing question

[titobras]

Hi,

I created a document using horizontal A4 with 2 collums (each printed page will take one half A4 sheet). In the master page I created a colored vertical rectangle in the right side from the upper corner to the lower corner. I set 0 for bleeding, 0 for margin and 0 for gutter when I created the document.

I need the printed document to have this colored rectangle taking the paper from the upper right corner to the lower right corner. But even having set zero for bleeding, margin and gutter I still get margins, bigger on on the top and botton and very little on the right side of the printing .. how do I get ride of that unwanted margins ???

Not sure if source of problem is your artwork or your printing. Trying to narrow down your problem, here are two thoughts:

Does the coloured background look ok in PDF output? (i.e. does it reach the edge of the artwork). If yes then the problem is printing rather than artwork.

What size of paper are your printing onto? If A4 artwork onto A4 paper (e.g. on a desktop printer) then you will not be able to have artwork touching the edge of paper...as no desktop printer - to my knowledge - can do this. As opposed to printing onto larger sheets then cutting, as a professional print firm would do.
