Only half a panorama with a epson R2400 pinter

Submitted by Hoppy72 on Sat, 2008-02-23 18:45.

I have a panorama of a historical local rugby ground that is about to be superseeded.The problem is when I try to print out on the R2400 printer with roll paper I did a print preview and it only shows half the photo lenghtwise, and I decided to print. It only printed half the photo. Are there any settings I can use be it with epson or photoshop CS3, any help would be gratefully appreciated.

Its probably a limitation of the software, depending on how wide you're trying to print.

I have an Epson R320 that can print Epson's defunct Panoramic Paper 8.3" x 23.8" paper size, but I tried to use MS Word to lay it out and Word simply won't print the part past 14"

You may need a program like Adobe's old Pagemenker (I forget what replaced it) or MS Publisher that will allow large custom sizes

Hi there (hi doug!):

How long is your image which you're trying to print?

You will need to go into your print settings and make a custom page size to accommodate the length of your image. Using the Epson 1280 w/roll paper, I'm able to get print lengths up to about 44" (IIRC; this may be a limitation only on the Mac w/Epson printer drivers).

Thanks very much for your reply I can now give more deatails that you may be able to help. The width or length I managed to achieve was 45" by using the custom settings in Photoshop. It is when I preview it in the Epson print software I get the Half the page lengthwise (having rotating the canvas by 90 deg.)and it is true to the printout. I must assume that the problem is with Epson so I may get in touch with them and any information will be passed on to this forum.

Interesting.... I am having the identical problem on an Epson 1280 on a PC. I will see if Epson has an answer and post anything useful.
