OK, on your printer is there any large borderless setting?
If there is, please set it up, move all margin sliders to the far left and cell sliders to the far right.

Observe the display, is it showing as borderless?
Switch off the Zoom to fill in Image settings and observe the displayed image, is it still borderless or are there now margins.

What is the difference between 11 x 17 and 11 x 17 (maximum) as noted on your printer set up page.

I found four Borderless settings for A3, screen shot attached, as I wasn't sure which I should use, )assuming it makes a difference). I found no borderless settings for the 11x17 I had been using.

11x17 has all settings at 0.13. Maximum bottom is at 0.56, but I recall putting those in myself. I have never seen any information about the differences between regular and maximum.

This is what it looks like on the A3 Borderless Auto Expand with all the sliders as you proscribe. Should I try a printout?

Even if this works, I still don't know where the problem is/was or how we addressed it...

It printed centered this time, but with large portions of the lower and right hand parts of the image cropped out. iPhone Photo attached. This is turning out to be a real WTF moment... The image also comes out very flat and dark, not at all like the processed image in LR. Haven't seen that before either.

On the left hand panel of the print module

The preview should show a plain white sheet with no black or blue lines

In the next panel down, the Template Browser, Do not click on anything, but use the slider down, is anything selected?

The darkness and flatness of the print is something that can be fixed by profiles which may or may not be attached to the A3

I am going to read the printer manual, so will be gone a while.

For purposes of comparison I'm sending an 8.5x11 with margins reduced to minimum of 0.13 all around in the screen shot, and an iPhoto of the result, which shows a wider margin at the left, or what might be considered as the bottom.

I know I have presumed on your valuable time, and apologize for monopolizing you. You must have many other and better things to do. (I suppose, however, on the more positive side of things at least for me, that you are taking this as a Holmsian challenge!)

Anyway, thank you very much. I guess I'll just have to print out via the preview, and keep struggling with this bizarre anomaly.

A quick question, when you printed out the A3 borderless, what was the actual size of the paper used?
