<x-charset iso-8859-1>The 1 metre (44 inch) length limitation is inherent in the Windows drivers. There are special techniques for printing more than 44 inches ('Banner mode') with Epson's screening, but you are unlikely to find a driver which uses them or bypasses the problem which isn't part of a RIP. This even applies to top-of-the-range 'large format' printers. If you do succeed in creating images longer than 44 inches, the odds are that you will get an unwanted fade-out/fade-in at the 44 inch mark, so check that this mode is supported before you waste all that time and media, or part with any money. D. ----- Original Message ----- Has anybody figured out a way to print panoramic images longer than 44 inches on an Epson 1160? I'm using Win2K operating system and the latest 1160/Win2k driver. While I can set custom paper sizes in the User Defined Paper Size dialog box, I'm limited to a paper height setting of 4400. This is 44 inches. I tried a method of creating custom media size for the XP operating system at http://panoramic.net/papersize This involves choosing server properties and creating a new form with the custom paper sizes. The author claims that when the user goes to print from any program, the new paper size will show up as one of the choices. While I was able to successfully set up the form in Win2K, I was never able to get it to show up as one of my choices. Perhaps it's only an XP capability. Any others found a workaround??
