The newest driver from Epson supports some borderless printing. For my current application I'm trimming the prints with a rotary trimmer to remove the borders, slow but good. I did run into an installation process bug with the new drivers, and Epson 2nd level support talked me through fixing it, with no charge. I use the minimize margins options on the page layout tab of the print properties window. It warns you about possible fading at the lower edge of the print, but as yet I haven't seen it. The "Printer Basics" pdf file describes which papers can be used for borderless printing on the 2200.

Gasp! Never measured as of today, but its about 1/8 on each the Top, Left and Right, and a bit more than 1/2 on the bottom. Adobe Illustrator automatically draws the correct margins when you set-up your working document. I tried drawing a box from the margin-out, but I can't find the object info!
