You just need to pick the correct paper type—the "borderless" variant—when you're choosing the paper size in the page setup dialog.

Your image aspect ratio does not match your paper aspect ratio. You can't get there from here without one of the following: crop, stretch, or trim!

To make an 8-1/2 X 11 from your image, it needs to be 3888 X 3005, you don't have enough pixels in the short dimension.

You need to understand that the images from your camera have an aspect ratio (i.e., height to width ratio) of 2:3 and that they will never fit on paper of another aspect ratio without cropping or stretching or white borders.

2:3 = 4 X 6, 5 X 7-1/2, 6 X 9, 7 X 10-1/2, 8 X12, 9 X 13-1/2, 10 X 15 etc.

Any other size print requires cropping, stretching, or white borders.

I print mostly 6 X 9 on 8-1/2 X 11 paper with nice white borders when I'm just giving someone "an 8 X 10" and I print 10 X 15 on 11 X 17 paper for framing and presentation. I almost never crop to 8 X 10 or 8-1/2 X 11 to make borderless prints.
